Thought I’d try a temperature blanket for 2021. I won’t be doing a fade but loved Esther’s idea of diagonal stripes. I’ll use DK so unsure of whether I’ll aim for a square or rectangle - I’ll see how the sizes come out. Waiting on yarn then I’ll begin.

Temp ranges (celcius) for Alice Springs:

Lipstick: 42+
Tomato: 39 - 41
Spice: 36 - 38
Sunshine: 33 - 35
Grass Green: 30 - 32
Kelly Green: 27 - 29
Turquoise: 24 - 26
Aster: 21 -23

Proper Purple: 15 - 17
Navy (scheepjes): 14 and below

Yarn finally arrived after being lost in the post. I’m super far behind but keen to start.

Might be 2022 now but I’m still finishing off. Just started the decreasing rows.

I ran out of Turquoise weeks ago and have had to wait 6 weeks for delivery. Time to keep going with this one.

Finally finished the rows!! I can’t face an envelope border so am going to sew in all the ends and do a simple linen stitch (I think)…

Finally done. Border done. Just needs a good block now!!
