    It’s definitely not just you! I get ridiculously excited about the changes in mine so far. Like ‘Look mom I get to use Blue Heather! Woot!’

    WOW ! I see this is 3 years ago, but you have really helped to inspire me to try later this year to try from my 49th year to my 50th year in Canada from October 13th this year to the same date next year, when I will be 76, it’s going to be fun this year thinking about the colours, possibly putting on a sparkling gold edging, and using it for our anniversary and two birthdays. Some sort of special colour for our four son’s birthdays or maybe just staying with gold for those special days , so it’s not too much ❤

    Love the idea of doing minimum and maximum temps in each square. Did you go left to right and then right to left on the next row, or left to right on every row?

    Hello! I'm inspired to crochet a temperature blanket with granny squares also ! I'm trying to figure out how much yarn do i need ... How much yarn did you use for the color that joins the squares ? Thanks for sharing your tips! Have a nice day

    Glad I found your video as this year is my first year of making a temperature blanket and you've given me so many great tips. I'm making mine using solid granny squares with the lowest temp in the middle and the highest temp around the outside.
    Your chart idea is a godsend.

    Im just started with my temperature blanket from my birth year. I’m making granny’s with the middle the high temperature, the second row the average, third row is the low and then I do white for my borders and month separate are multicolor yarn. For my sister I make one for her graduation year in blue and grey tones she chose the colors herself for it. For my son i made one for the first 6 months of his life.

    I’m a beginner and would love to do a granny square temperature blanket. Do you do a square every day and do you attach the squares together as you go so you don’t forget which colour goes where? Thanks for a fab informative video Louise 😘👍🏼 x

    • @TheMakerOnTheMove
      @TheMakerOnTheMove  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi. I did one square fore each day of the year plus a blank one between each month to break it up. I attached them as I went along to keep them in the right order but also, the idea of joining them all in one do at the end didn't't sound fun! Good luck with yours! Let me know how you get on with it

      You can start a temperature blanket whenever you’d like. You can look back at temperature if you decide to start one when you’re ready. Good luck!

    I'm really wanting to make a temperature blanket starting Jan 1st. So I'm searching TH-cam for ideas. I'm stuck on colors. I have Googled charts and so many of them have great colors but I am trying to keep it simple ... I live in MN and MN weather is all over the place. Like Sept this year we had 90° days and 30° days. Should be an interesting blanket lol

    • @TheMakerOnTheMove

      @TheMakerOnTheMove  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi! It will be pretty big but it depends how you do it. If you do a row per day then yes, it’ll be huge. But, it’s your blanket so you can make it any size you want

    Fab video Louise and I’m now inspired to knit one (I don’t crochet) and my head is buzzing with ideas. Daft question - where did you get your temperatures? Did you record temperatures yourself or did you use Met Office charts? Did you record for Sutton or the UK?

      @TheMakerOnTheMove  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Jo. Love to hear that you’re thinking of starting a blanket. I used timeanddate.com. You can type in your postcode and it gives you the closest weather station. I think I used Mildenhall Air Base as their information was very accurate. You can find one closest to you. Hope you get on ok with yours. I can’t wait to see it

    Interesting project idea and I like your thoughts on it. I've got to say though, that loud popping sound effect you use every time you make a point is extremely jarring. I almost couldn't make it through the video because of it.
