Retro Jersey ideas

Since so many people are into "retro" these days, perhaps something like this could inspire a retro macrame jersey. Who's with me on this?

I'll get right on tying my knots. I'm sure I'll feel like a teenager again once I'm rolling in one of those.

...And all along, we thought Curtis was the number one jersey designer. Who would-a thunk it?

I would have loved to have a jersey like that back in the 60's. The hair style and sun glasses don't quite go with it.

If it were like the macrame I had in '74, it would have the image of an owl woven into the back with a real stick at the bottom. Similar to this:

Do they take custom orders?

Back in the day I made a living at macramé. I had fun tying knots and selling them. Ah, simpler times...
