Pattern Description:
The Hexagon Granny Square Temperature Blanket is a year-long project that tracks the daily high and low temperatures with vibrant, colorful hexagon squares. Perfect for beginners, this pattern provides step-by-step instructions for creating hexagons that combine to form a unique blanket reflecting your local climate through the year.

Size Options:

The blanket can be customized based on your preference. With 17 hexagons per row and 22 rows, you’ll create a cozy, medium-sized blanket.
Add extra rows or reduce the total rows to adjust the overall size.

Gauge:
Gauge is flexible for this pattern.

Materials Needed:
Yarn: Choose a lightweight yarn in various colors for tracking temperature changes (e.g., cotton, DK weight).
Recommended Hook Size: 4mm (G/6) crochet hook.
Notions: Scissors, tapestry needle for joining hexagons and weaving in ends.

Yarn Amounts:
Since daily colors are used based on temperature changes, yarn amounts vary by color depending on your local climate.
For 12-14 colors in a climate with moderate variation, plan for approximately 1-2 skeins per color, with additional skeins of white (or another joining color) for round 4 and joining hexagons.

Additional Notes:
Temperature Ranges: Define color ranges based on your climate. Most crafters select ranges in increments of 5°C/10°F.
Joining Hexagons: For a seamless finish, join hexagons as you go, or save them for a final assembly at the end of the year. A whip stitch or slip stitch join is recommended.
Weaving in Ends: Crocheting over the yarn ends in each hexagon will save time and create a tidy finish.
