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.

April 2nd 2015 Update - Spring Adventure

Hey guys. Homework is over and school holidays are here! And to commemorate, a great new update! (Spotted any hints of sarcasm?) I don't know if it's in order but whatevs.

 
A new adventure for Spring. It is very similar to the adventure at the end of last year. Basically, you have to collect 100 eggs, and you get prizes depending on how many you get.
 
 
You collect eggs of all different colours, and as you collect them, you get different prizes. You can also get prizes by doing the following:
 
 
There are plants that look like this scattered throughout the flowery land. If you water them using the wells, they bloom.
 

 
After they bloom, treasure comes out.
 


 
Since I don't have much time today, I just collected 15 eggs to show you the prizes I got. I'll come up with a list of them later on, maybe tomorrow.

 
I also got another flowering tree which I forgot to take a photo of, and it looks bigger and more of a hot pink colour compared to the flowering orange tree.

 
There are also gem treasure chests in this adventure.

 
 
Another great adventure if you're low on gems (like me).
 
There's also a very pretty flowering tree patch I found.

 
And if you head North when you start, you will see this.

 
Unlike most adventures, there's no guide at the beginning telling you what to do and how to do it. There are many guides you can ask though by clicking the '!' above their heads as you walk past.
 
 
I actually quite like the Deep Space items this update.
 

 
AJ always finds an excuse for people to spend more at the Diamond Shop. Polar bears are leaving in two weeks.

 
Some sort of reptile, like a lizard or a dinosaur (that would be so awesome!), or maybe a snake, is coming soon, aka in about 2-3 more updates.  
 
Really hoping it's a dinosaur!!!!!!
