![I *finally* finished my year-long crochet project! [TEMPERATURE BLANKET VLOG]](/img/n.gif)
I'm doing a retroactive temperature blanket for Edmonton Alberta in 1945 for my mom. She got super excited about my blanket so I'm making her one too.
Your yarn dying results are very nice . I adore the colors you created and am excited about it this year because I have been planning to start one for the first time 🌻💫
I loved hearing about your Grandma and how she taught you to chain! My great aunt Sylvia taught me to chain and I made a very long chain using white,green, and brown variegated yarn (it was the 70’s😆) She then took my chain and sewed it into a circle on a brown velvet pillow-such a special memory!😊❤️😊
I am actually keeping track of the temperature and my daughter's daily mood in my knitting journal this year. My daughter is 14 and the moods from day to day are wild, so I'm thinking of making a mood blanket instead of a temperature blanket.
I thought of doing the same thing with my 15 year old daughter! Love that idea
@LindseyMiller
That's a great idea!
Why don't you include your daughter in it? Assign a color to a mood, with her help, and have her tell you what mood/color she's in each day. It might make her more aware of her own mood changes, and that she has some control over the colors in her blanket. Hint: make her favorite color the good moods.
Present her with the blanket when it's complete. I love this idea...
Great idea! My daughter is 41 and lives in a different state, LOL.
That is such a creative idea. My daughter is always on an even kill. I have never even seen her angry. We were playing around one day and I asked her if she was a serial killer in disguise...jk. she's the best!!
Turning 18 this year so I think a mood blanket would be really interesting since I keep a daily track of my mood
Whatever sweater you’re wearing fits you so well and is so well knitted it’s beautiful
It's a sweater from Target
I just saw this video. I started my first temperature blanket on Sept 28, 2022 to document my and my husband's 15th year of marriage. I love it! I am doing Toni's tunisian crochet temperature blanket pattern. I love it so much that I am thinking of making another one starting in January! Also, I love the colors of this blanket. I'm gonna check out your channnel to see if you have any update videos.
im planning on doing one for 2022 which is when I am graduating college and starting something new! Hopefully will be a great souvenir of this time in my life. This blanket is so gargeous
My Granny taught me the single n double crochet stitch n I made a blanket Granny was proud of me doing it
Talking about your grandma crocheting really struck a chord with me. I have always been a knitter and attempted crochet numerous times but never got a hang of it, but my grandma was an avid crocheter. She passed away a few years ago and since then I have been working to pick crochet back up again and try to learn more advanced stiches and patterns.
That's going to be stunning! I definitely prefer that to the primary colours that are usually used. And the fact that it's made out of your yarn will make it all the more special for Eliza.
Please make temperature blanket kits! You have totally changed my perspective on this concept 😍
I liked the idea of temperature blankets but not the rainbow color palette. It was when I saw a blanket using a different palette that I decided to make one as a graduation present using my teen's favorite color and making it over the course of their senior year of high school.
The time is nearly here. My eldest finishes his Junior year next month. Initial planning done, yarn ordered. I look forward to the evolution of his blanket over the final year of high school.
Absolutely gorgeous color palette!
Amazing video! I'm doing a temperature blanket for 2022 since I have so many leftovers from two granny square projects. I love your rustic color palette and I'm already thinking of ideas for a natural/neutral blanket similar to this after seeing your video!
Beautiful afghan! Love this idea. My boys are grown but I am thinking of doing this for them now.
The colors you chose look so beautiful together and this blanket will be so special for Eliza! Can't wait to see it all done with the winter colors included!
Your blanket is fabulous!!! I love how you specifically chose colors that are your/your family's vibe!
So my brain is going overtime now. Just thinking about all the retroactive blankets I could make. Love the colours you have chosen for your daughter's blanket. Very beautiful.
I loved hearing about your plan for the temperature blanket. I love the colorways you chose and this will be such a special blanket for your daughter to have in the years to come.
I just found your channel, and I just love your podcasts! You seem so sweet and down to earth. I just had to subscribe.
It’s beautiful so far and I’m sure Eliza will treasure it forever. I have made blankets for my daughters (although not temperature ones) and my youngest daughter will be taking it with her when she goes off to college in September. Currently I am knitting her a Harry Styles cardigan which is most excited for! If you don’t know what it looks like, give it a google- YIKES! Not what I would wear but it makes my heart happy to see how much my daughter loves it♥️. Have fun with Eliza’s blanket- it’s sooo worth it!
I absolutely love that colour palette! Being its a year later I'm gonna need to look for updates on this blanket. I love the ones that vary from the standard temp blanket format.
I learned of temp blankets in 2021 and I considered making one but never thought of it again until 2022. I did start one this year and i chose the "traditional" rainbow scale since I love vibrant colours. Though i've chosen to do the highest & lowest of every day with a granny square design.
I'm also planning a retro temp blanket for my birth year. Not planning as in im for sure going to do it, just getting all my numbers together in case I do. This one I'm thinking of an hourly blanket in a blue/purple gradient colour scheme. I have a spreadsheet set up as a visual so it might never be more then digital. XD
So cool! I’ve never heard of a temperature blanket. Takes the guesswork out of deciding what color to use next! Loving yours! 😍
Very interesting, don’t think I could come up with a color palette...
I LOVE the idea of doing a retroactive temp blanket for big/important years. I need to learn how to crochet granny stripes first though lol
I love your colors and I love the color blocking effect. If I choose to do a temperature blanket, I think I'd like to do one this way.
What an amazing idea to celebrate her first year of life, so special and such a good ideas. Just makes this blanket extra special! Also I love the colours! I also struggle with all the rainbow blankets, I like the colours but not for a blanket in mijn home. So your colours are very beautiful!
Your temp blanket is GORGEOUS!!! I’m so tempted to buy all of those colors to make one!!😍😍😍
This is looking amazing! What a great idea. I also learned how to crochet as a child from my Grandma. I am definitely going to try this. Thank you so much for sharing.
I love this! I am doing one for 2021 as well in a muted palette of greys, teals, pinks and neutrals.
Like you, I don't find the rainbow-y temperature blankets appealing, but never considered just changing up the scheme. Now I've got it in my head to do a monochromatic blanket in shades of grey, with black and white at the extreme ends. Uh oh
What a beautiful gift. The colors are gorgeous and it is that much more special because it is made with your own Stress Knits yarn colorways. Looking forward to all the updates as you progress. (I hadn’t thought of making a “retroactive” temp blanket, and very much appreciate that idea!)
Oh my gosh I am OBSESSED with this - gorgeous! Also what a beautifully loving thing to make your daughter!
I had no interest in doing a temperature blanket (or scarf) until I saw this. I agree, living in Minneapolis I think I'd do a 5 degree difference, otherwise the blanket would be rows and rows of the same colour each month, which is okay, but I like a "scrappier" look. Now to check my stash for 12-14 different colours!
I live in Minneapolis and was thinking the same thing, too ❤️
I love the colors 😍😍😍 And the 3 colors you showed as Eliza you should pop in the shop as an Eliza bundle 👌 (if I wasn’t in Europe and out of a job atm I would definitely order that! 🥰)

Hi Stacy, the blanket is beautiful and thoughtful. I just came across your channel, been thinking about making a temperature blanket, I had just recently watched Tony's video on the subject, there's alot to consider before starting a big project like that. I do like bright colors, but thinking of toning it down w/ muted shades, and making smaller temperature/color ratios so 1 color doesn't pool to much. I too live in Mi., near flint. I've found 4 other channels who are from here too.
Soooo pretty! I love the colors you chose and I’m really looking forward to watching it grow!
I'm doing a temperature blanket for my senior year of high school!!
I am making a striped pullover in most of these colors - its beautiful!!
I think I want to make one of these like you are for each of my kids first year! I can’t cast on right now but I can start planning colors and do my temp research!
No way, Eliza and I have the same birthday! Good luck on this! You're giving me inspiration for a future temp blanket of my own 🥰
I love the colors you picked! I just recently heard about temperature blankets and I love the idea. I'm thinking of making one for my daughter who is getting married later this year
I love Toni of TL yarns. I made many of her baby gingham blankets with Tunisian crochet, but made them for twin size beds.
I need to tell you, that now I'm thinking about starting this kind of blanket. I'm not sure if I want so colorful and random temperature one, but maybe my favorite neons with shades of grey will look nice on my couch? Hmmm... Seeing your huge crochet fabric in front of camera I think I want something similar in my life, especially because I don't reach for knitting needles lately, so maybe with crochet hook it would be easier and faster to make and perfect for leftovers as well!
cant wait to finally have my son here and do it for next year
i love alt color temperature blankets :)))) the only important thing for the color palette is to make it a gradient of some kind.
This is a great idea! I’ve always wanted to do one but just kept thinking calendar year, not just any 365 day period. #tunnelvision🤦🏾♀️. Thanks!
I'm doing a crochet temperature blanket for 2021! I'm using a rainbow color pallet with jewel tones. I look forward to seeing yours! I'm thinking about making another one for my parent's 20th wedding anniversary that will be coming up in a couple year, that would cover their first year of marriage.
My yarn colour collection varies from whites greys blues with a little green and yellow thrown in as most if the temperature in uk is on the cool side
I may need to learn how to crochet just because of this. I've tried temperature blankets for two years now (unsuccessfully). I have yet to find the right yarn and stay committed. I love your color palette also. I think that could've been my dislike of the colors or my lack of skills, but both years I ripped them both out.
It looks so good so far! You always pick lovely color palettes :)
Those colors are gorgeous! Did you say you dye your own yarns? Ooh, they are so ME!
I'm in AZ and love your color choice
I am doing a blanket for 2021. Moss ripple stitch pattern. I went with knit picks, cooler colors for the cooler months and warmer colors for summer. I am crocheting it for a town in far northern Minnesota and am doing 1 row for the low temp and 1 row for this temp. Huge temperature swings there are making this STUNNING!
Correction...1 row for low temp and 1 row for high temp...
Toni can do no crochet wrong. You're in good hands.
Going to learn to crochet this year!
I love it SO much!!!
I am making a big temperature blanket now
Wow, I love the colours you chose! That's going to be a beautiful blanket, I'm sure Eliza will treasure it when she's older. I made a temperature blanket for 2016, and I only finished it a year ago haha. I actually used Loops & Threads, funny that you mentioned it. I went for a more muted colour palette, and I just love how it turned out. Here's the link to my Ravelry page if you're curious: ravel.me/thismennoknits/myits I'm not in a rush to do another huge blanket, but I kind of want to make a granny stripe blanket for my birth year now!
Hi just found you. Loving the blanket. What is the design stitches. I noticed squares and sort of like Diamonds
I have all my yarn in but just cannot get into the mood to start my temperature blanket.
You are the worst (not really. Not at all actually). Every time I watch an episode of yours I cast something new on!! The blanket is such a lovely idea
How many stitches did you use?
What kind of stitch?
I love love love your colors. I am going to make a tempreture blanket Sept thru March I want to use fall colors to start. What stitch are you using I love it. I will follow you on instagram.
Thank you! I think it's a double crochet granny stripe? I'm not 100% sure. I just looked up how to do a granny strip blanket lol.
❤️💐
I hate to be a downer but have you considered how long 365 rows will be? You may end up with a 10 foot long blanket!
I think it depends on how tightly people crochet? I crochet very tightly.

This video is too much talking before she gets to the point. So I had to scroll all the way to do this video to see what the business is really about
