Join us in knitting a temperature blanket during 2023! Follow along with us and fellow crafters using the hashtag #LBY2023TempBlanket on Instagram.

Have you heard of temperature blankets? They’re a great way to make memories and document your year in yarn! Every day for a year you will knit 2 rows using the color that corresponds to the day’s high temperature in your area. This fun project is beginner friendly and uses only garter stitch! We’ve selected colors, paired them with a temperature range (see main image), and provided the suggested yarn amounts below. Feel free to alter your colors (see pattern for a “classic brights” option) and select more of the colors that correspond with your area’s climate. When knitting at the recommended gauge each ball of Schitt’s Creek Yarn will give you approximately 48 rows (24 days) in that temperature range. For example, 1 ball of Hide Your Diamonds stitches up into 24 days of the temperature range 33 – 43 degrees F.
