Temperature blanket

2018 Temperature Blanket

I’ve been wanting to do a temperature blanket for a couple of years, but it seems like a big undertaking. What is a temperature blanket? Every day for a year you crochet a row of the blanket color-coordinated to the high temperature of the day. The challenge is 365 rows makes a HUGE blanket.

I’ve decided to go the block route with a light DK yarn. I’m hoping this will keep my squares to around 3 inches, making the finished product a manageable size.

I’m using this pattern as my base: http://madebydo.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/large-circles-in-square-tutorial.html?m=1

I’ve picked out fourteen colors, plus white for snow, blue for rain, and grey for the background color. I can’t wait to show you the colors when they arrive.

As I’m typing this post with no pictures, I realize it may not make a lot of sense to you, but I will try to update as I go.
