2025 Temperature Blanket
This year I chose to make a moss stitch in the square blanket, with each row of the square being one day of the highest temperature, taken at 12 pm each day for Carmarthenshire, South Wales, UK and one square for each month of the year, that will then be joined together to make a blanket.
You can track the daily temperatures for your area on the Time and Date website that records historical weather data. I keep a spreadsheet with the temperatures on for each day and then do a batch of rows for my blanket each week, rather than one row each day but you can work it however you like to suit your routine.
Here are the colours used from the Stylecraft Special DK range , but you can use any combination you like and any temperature range you prefer too.

MONTHLY UPDATES
January 2025.
Here we are again with a new Temperature Blanket project for 2025. This year it is Moss Stitch Squares, each row of the square, around the white middle, is one day of the highest temperature taken at 12 pm each day and there is one square for each month of the year that will be then joined together to make a blanket.
Top Temp got to 11⁰C on 5.1
Low Temp was 3⁰C on 8.1
February 2025.
I was going to say “oh, so much blue”, but then Spring suddenly sprang on 22 February and we had 5 gorgeous days of green before it dipped back to blue again. I am glad though, that the whole square hasn’t turned out to be shades of blue for the month.
I wonder if we will get to use any of the other shades of green in March too. What do you think?
Top Temp got to 12⁰C on 21.2
Low Temp was 4⁰C on 14.2
March 2025
I think you will agree how gorgeous this month turned out to be and a perfect visual representation of Spring so far. With lots of lovely yellows for some stunning warmer days too,
Top Temp: Got to a barmy 19⁰C on 20.3, shown by the darker mustard yellow row.
Low Temp: 8⁰C on several days, shown by denim blue rows, like on the 4.3.
April 2025
The month started off with lovely warm weather and a mix of yellows.
Top Temp got to 22⁰C on 4.4
Low Temp dipped to 8⁰C on 15.4
I still need to start joining the completed squares together too, but that is the bit I don’t enjoy.
May 2025
A lovely bright square for the month, even though the rain returned towards the end.
The top temp was 26⁰C on 1.5
Lowest temp was a respectable 13⁰C on 4.5 & 5.5
Do you think we will get to use any of the reds in June? We certainly didn’t get close last year.
