This vintage afghan kit that came with my Potential yarn lot dates back to the seventies, according to my research. I remember seeing these somewhere back then -- my aunt might have made a couple.
This was one that was sold on eBay, to give you a better view of what it makes. There are a few Sultana kits out there of the same age and similar condition being sold for $50.00 to $60.00.
The kit was likely stored in a closet, and while the packaging definitely seemed about 50 years old the yarn turned out to be in pristine condition for its age. The instructions for the afghan were also still in the box, so I might try making it when winter comes around.
