Temperature Blanket 2021

 Okay I am so looking forward to doing this blanket this year for many reasons.

I get to knit everyday even if it is just a row.

I get to play with so many colours, it is fun

It is a bit of a challenge to discipline myself to do a row even when I am busy, its hot or whatever distraction I usually find.


Today I have cast on 275sts and knitted my first row. I am toying with the idea of adding seed stich every now and then, rather than all garter stitch. Hence the odd number cast on.

Do pop back to this post now and again as I will post my blanket as it grows.

Well the first ten days have been cold, yesterday hit a minus which gave a nice pop of silver grey. Warmed up quite a bit today so next range of colours starting. Loving doing this so far and just using garter stitch.



  

Coming along nicely, even a few degrees each day is giving a nice range of colour, Nearly had snow last week, and contemplated using some white fluffy yarn,  Not to be we missed the snow.


Spring is popping up everywhere, today I will be using my sky blue for the first time. I am loving this blanket so far knitting two rows a day. I wander if that will continue as it gets warmer.


Thought I would pop a new photo on to show the progress. This is up until the beginning of May. I am loving this project so far and look forward to knitting my rows each day.
