Item History: Worn Blanket

"Just wanna say, don't know what we're doing here but I am loving these fake moustaches."
~Mabel, Gravity Falls

Ah, the worn blanket. I remember a few years back, where, like top hats today, everyone who as anyone wanted worn blankets. They've died down in popularity these days though, which is the path that the Fox Hat went down too, which is unfortunate since the Fox Hat is one of my favourite non member items.

Anyway, enough about the sad stuff. I've done research from many websites, so if you don't know this stuff, here it is. If you do, don't worry about it :D

They were released in October of 2012, and were never resold. As of 2012, you could win some by reaching the top in Sky High, but I don't know if they are still winnable.

The originals come in 8 colours; blue, black, red, brown, indigo, pink, green and cream. This is what a black one looks like.

 
The not nearly as rare ones, the light purple and the light blue, are both rares. The purple one was sold at the February 23 2012 Leap Year Party, and the blue one was sold on June 9 last year.
 
 
The Daily Explorer posted about that.
 
Before it was called the "Worn Blanket", it was called the "Sleek Worn", and then the "Old Blanket". I personally like the idea of it being the "Sleek Worn". It sounds classier, you know?
 
I have really wanted to post about the April Fools Party, but you know why I haven't? It's because I have the worst timing ever and I am never on when it is on. Speaking of which, while I was looking for it, I came across a peculiar glitch.
 
 
I'm pretty sure, but don't quote me, that the party isn't supposed to be scrolled to half way down.
 
Well, see ya.
