My Temperature Afghan. Last year I saw a lot of posts on social media about "Temperature Afghans" - and they could be knit or crochet. You assign a color
of yarn to a temperature range - as an example use pink yarn if the temperature is in the range of 20-29 degrees for the day. You can choose to use the high temperature for the day - or the low. And - I've even seen some afghans on pinterest that use both the high and low! So - last year - I bought all of my yarn at Michael's for my afghan:
So now - it's another year - and guess what? I started it last night! I'm using the high temperature for the day and purple is my color for the range of 10-19 degrees.
Now, I have seen where some of these afghans can be HUGE! You end up doing 365 rows... so I chained 350 to start my afghan. It wasn't until I got to work today that I figured out that my afghan is going to be more than 9 feet long and 9 feet wide!!! ok... So - maybe I'll do two this year - one for the first 6 months and one for the 2nd 2 months!
I ended up doing 5 rows last night - for the first five days of January. My hope is to get caught up - and then STAY caught up! But - for those of you that know me... that could be a problem :-) I'm not the best at staying caught up with things. But - this is a new year, and we will see!!!
We are having a craft night this Friday, January 26th from 6-9 at Versailles Presbyterian Church. You can work on anything you want - or just come and visit. Bring a snack if you choose. Let us know if you'll be coming!
I'm in the process of creating an Etsy shop for myself. I have a lot of crafty items I'd like to find new homes... scrapbooking supplies, yarn, quilting items... I will keep you posted - and Mona can share my shop with you once it's up and running!
