Happy New Year!!ย I’m kicking the year off to a start with my latest pattern, hot off the hook.ย My Flower Temperature Blanket crochet pattern is a design for a throw using cute little granny squares with a flower motif. Each flower represents the temperature of the day and we’ll be making them all year!

The Flower Temperature Blanket is designed for intermediate crocheters and is a fun, engaging project that will keep your creativity flowing throughout an entire year. The idea behind a temperature blanket is to create one square each day.ย The petals of each square represent that dayโs temperature, making it an artistic way to track the seasons and a vibrant crochet record of the yearโs weather.
The design is a reboot of an old pattern I designed in 2015 –ย Mini Flower Block – using DK weight yarn instead of the original worsted.ย I’ve also made a few changes to the background round to reduce the amount of yarn needed.
My version of the blanket is based on the UK climate, but you can easily customise the temperature ranges to suit your own local weather conditions. This blanket spans a full year, consisting of 360 squares plus 5 rounds for the edging, perfectly representing all 365 days.
The pattern is in written format in both UK and US crochet terminology and includes a crochet chart. There is also a colouring-in page so you can keep track of the squares throughout the year to make joining easier.
yarn
Iโve used Lang Yarns Merino 120 for the blanket.ย Its a DK weight (Light Worsted) yarn that offers a stunning array of colour choice and squishy softness. I picked out a rainbow of 8 vibrant colours to reflect the spectrum of temperatures throughout the year. To make these colours truly pop, I paired them with a delicate pale grey background and a dark grey joining colour that elegantly ties everything together.
If youโd like to use a different yarn be sure to pick a DK / Light Worsted weight yarn. Make one square to check youโve got the gauge/tension before you start!
