My latest design is a Temperature Blanket for Deramores. Its an easy pattern to work because it only uses basic stitches and will keep your hooks busy for 365 days!
About
Basically, the idea of the Temperature Blanket is that you crochet one row of the blanket in a colour that coordinates with the temperature of that day. The Temperature Blanket I’ve designed is based on the climate here in the UK but you can tweak the temperature ranges to suit where you live easily. The Temperature Blanket spans a whole year (365 rows, 365 days) so that the finished size is BIG!!! When complete your blanket will cover a double (twin) bed nicely.
I’ve picked four different colourways so each represents a season of the year for you to choose from. Starting with Spring which is full of fresh, airy pastel colours, then Summer with vibrant and bold shades, Autumn contains shades of deep reds and purple and finally, Winter which features crisp white icy blue and deep jade shades.
Each row of the temperature blanket takes approximately 15-20 minutes to complete and you also have the choice to make it as long and short as you like!

You can get the pattern (which is free!!!!) or both pattern and your choice of yarn pack in my Deramores Designer Shop. Use the drop down menu to pick the colour pack you want or just the digital pattern. Grab your pattern and kit by clicking here or the button below.

If I wanted to make this to fit a single bed rather than a double, what’s the number of stitches? I’ve been trying to work out the pattern repeat to see if there is a multiple I can use to work it out, but it’s hurting my head! (I’ve been looking for a temperature blanket pattern for ages that won’t end up about 20 feet long but isn’t just moss stitch, so I’m excited to do this.)
Hi Michelle,
Thanks for getting in touch! The blanket is 164 cm wide so would cover a single blanket and dangle over the edges about 30cm either side. If you want to make a blanket to just sit on the top of a single bed (about 100cm wide) then chain 162 sts and work 25 repeats on row 1 and 26 repeats on all other rows.
Hope this helps! Give me a shout if you have any further questions.
Many thanks and Happy Hooking!

Is there any visual or YouTube to follow this stitch I am really struggling with the pick up below. I brought two of these kits as I love the colours and the pattern so much and it stated easy
Any help would be much appreciated. I am new crocheter but understand the basics.
Thank you
