Temperature Blanket wk 1

Have you heard about this?
 "The idea is to crochet a row a day for an entire year. The color you use is determined by the temperature each day."       -Repeat Crafter Me. ( said it best)  

I first heard about a Temperature Scarf a few years ago. I started one but never got past the first month. This year I plan to make a blanket. I like projects I can piece together. My blanket will be 2 round granny squares using a J size hook.

Here are my colors



91 and above - Cream
81 - 90            Perfect Pink
71 - 80            Rouge
61 -70             Lavender 
51 - 60            Orchid
41 - 50            Bright Orchid
31 - 40            Turquoise 
21 - 30            Delft Blue
11 - 20            Jade
10 and below- Peacock

I will be adding snow days as well. 

Here is my progress for week one. As you can see its been a colorful week :)
a few turquoise , bright orchid , a sparkly square for a snow day and delft blue.  


I can't wait to see what week 2 brings!

    I really love the colors you chose. I live in southern Texas so it's above 80 majority of the year. I want to make a temp blanket for my daughyer as a gift on her 1st birthday and have been hesitating because I don't want it to be a red blanket with one or two green lines ! Thank you so much !!!!

YOP year 5? Seriously?

I can't believe it's year 5 already....... this is my 3rd year participating. The last few days have been productive for me .I made a schedule for the next few months so I stay on track. I STARTED and  FINISHED the Zero lovey that was part of my hook challenge. It will be given to my cousin Ryder ( I really like that name ) due in October. I played with the pictures a little in editing. Its something different. ****** I got on the C2C bandwagon and started a few of my own. It is so addicting!! I love this!  I ran out of yarn for this one........ so I started this one. ( full skein not pictured)  ****** Also, I "dusted off" the Boston Bruin Blanket squares and started sewing them together. Its a bit tricking as you can see.... Why do I punish myself.. hehe my full project list can be found here .

YOP week 36: More Squares

First I want to apologize for my yucky out side table. My porch has the best light. A few weeks ago I started my Boston Bruin Blanket. I had trouble deciding on either to make traditional granny squares or solid.   With help of a facebook group I love , I will be making the blanket with solid squares. They will use up a but more yarn but the blanket will be warmer. Here is my progress so far.... These are squares for the top of the blanket. I ran out of yellow so I started making black squares. This is the  chart  I am using .. I am using smaller squares because I don't need a big blanket. I plan to make numbers ( by  Moogly ) for my favorite team members. I think I can fill up all the big squares around the B. Yellow 2 rnd sq- ___of 38 made 4 rnd sq- ___of 1 made 6 rnd sq- 4 of 8 made 8 rnd sq- 2 of 14 made Black 2 rnd sq- 5 of 14 made 4 rnd sq- ___of 5 made 6 rnd sq- 4 of 12 made 8 rnd sq not needed
