[@camryns_cute_creations]

Are you planning on making a temp blanket this year???😍💖⬇️

[@BThirstyPretzel]

yes! my first one

[@deniseengeln7807]

I’m teaching myself to crochet by making a temperature blanket. I’ll either love or dread crocheting by the end of the year! Our temps have been so mild here in Spokane Valley…until this week! I had to run to Joanne’s to get a new cold color and they told me I wasn’t the first one to come in for that😂.

[@renatev.dd.8174]

Yes! I will be taking the temp every other day. My start day was 9 februari and my plan is till 9 may, so 3 months temperature blanket. I have an alarm in my phone notify me on 2:30 noon, to get the temp of that moment and i sign it down with the color. I'm going to make squares, with added color for my emotion that moment on that day. Cheers from the Netherlands 😊

[@danic6797]

Can I just say that I also crochet the same way you do. It’s so nice to see I’m not alone! Yes, I am starting my granny square temp blanket this year. Send prayers.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's so exciting!! :) What colors are you wanting to use for your color blanket? :)

[@coolearrow]

I'm planning on making a temperature snake (basicly a temperature blanket but it's an amigurumi snake)in 2024, and this is very usefull! Please continue making these videos!

[@trishasmith2303]

That’s an awesome idea!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my gosh, that sounds so cool!!! I absolutely want to see updates on that :)

[@elkooone]

Yes! I saw that idea today on instagram and now I wanna catch up and make a snake too! A blanket always seemed so intimidating but a SNAKE??? Hell yeah!!!!

[@EFergDindrane]

Here in Alabama I'll need to use my favorite colors for those 80+ days that will be the bulk of the blanket, even if green doesn't scream "the sun hates you". Our weather in insane. Like this year, we had a week of 20s, and then a couple days in the 60s, and then back down to 40, and then up to 60, all in one week. MADNESS. I'm thinking of tying on a little ribbon on birthday rows.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my goodness! That's a lot of temperature variation!

[@Marre_JustMyself]

I started my first temperature blanket this year! I'm doing it because I need to create a habit of crocheting since this is the year I decided to commit to starting my small business and stop procrastinating🎉

[@marivart3613]

I totsoly understand about the special hook! Last year i was working on a color pool blanket and hsvong my fave hook to work on it apart from the rest really exited me on working on it :) Thank you for all the tips, I know I might be a little behind to start this year's blanket but I'll give it a try :)

[@deeda5147]

I can't wait to see what mine will be! We have wild weather in Tennessee. Its gone from 7 - 70 in a matter of days and we get plenty over 100

[@Gnomes22]

Yes! This will be my 2nd one. I crocheted my 1st temp blanket last year and just finishing the border. We used a different stitch for every month which was brilliant.

[@trishasmith2303]

I think what’s great about the temperature blanket is you get a LOT of experience working on a particular stitch. By the end, you’d be an expert in a fan/shell or lemon peel or whatever you choose to use. Me being extra… I would try to change my stitch every 3 months 😂😂. I’ve only attempted to do a lap blanket before using some fluffy yarn from Michael’s. It may end up being an unfinished rug because I keep running out of yarn 😂😂.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

😂😂 you really do become an expert in that one stitch you do 😂

[@user-kb6ss2st3k]

I’m excited to try this. Hope I make it thru the year. Your tutorial is great.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Thank you! I'd love to see the blanket you make :)

[@conniescrochetedcreations]

Hi Camryn! Your temperature blanket is so beautiful! I am nearing the finish line on mine also. I weave my ends in as I go. Happy New Year to you and your family! 🙂

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You're much smarter than me for weaving in as you go!! Much love and Happy New Year to you, as well! :)

[@kachinasdayinthelife7972]

I’m ready…nervous but ready. Thanks for baby stepping me through ❤

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I'm so excited for you to start yours! :)

[@peggyharwell3674]

Ahh. Thank you Camryn. I too like the Moss stitch for it's simplicity. Great tutorial as always.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Thank you so much! :)

[@SkyyWalk21]

I normally crochet over the ends as I go …what a difference and time saver

[@annetteopalka5670]

Thank you for this video!!! I’m using this to create a book genre blanket! Just picked my colors and created my key!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That’s so exciting!! What colors did you pick? :)

[@raeannisaak5847]

I can’t wait to get started! My daughter and I will both be making one for the very first time!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That’s so wonderful! :) I’m so glad y’all are doing it together!

[@SharitCreations]

I'm glad I havent started my blanket yet. Your video inspires me to make my own first temperature blanket. I am going to be doing two round granny squares for each day. When you showed your key color chart you gave me an idea to use my laminating machine to laminate the key. After it's laminated then I will hole punch it. That way the key will last all year.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's so awesome! :)

[@C.A.R.M.E.N.I.T.A]

I’m so excited to start mine!! Doing mine in 2024 to signify my first full year of high school! (2nd semester freshman year + 1st semester sophomore year) and I am over the moon!! Picked out some colors today and kind of wanted to have a journal going where I write down just a bit about the day in regards to how I felt about the weather! So excited and this video has gotten me even more ready to begin!!!,

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's so incredibly exciting! :) It will be a great year to mark out some big events that happen!! Can I ask what some of the colors you chose are? :)

[@C.A.R.M.E.N.I.T.A]

@@camryns_cute_creations I love pastels and my decor style definitely has a lot of simple and cute pastels, so I picked out some yellows, pinks, blues, and purples as well as a light gray and a cream to separate my months!

[@leeannwilliams5824]

I had never heard of a temperature blanket until I started following you on Instagram and I’m so fascinated with them now. Absolutely love yours!! 🤍 I have not crocheted in years (decades) except for a few random attempts over this year. My big crochet goal for 2024 is to make all matching temperature blankets for me and my 3 daughters. Okay - off to work and back to your video in just a bit. Thank you for all your upbeat enthusiasm, your wonderful personality and always sharing such awesome crochet fun and knowledge!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my goodness, 4 temperature blankets at once?? That is going to be so cool! And I love that you're going to be matching with your daughters :)

[@jessdavis7565]

I had my key and pattern all done/picked out before I saw your video. I also found a sheet to keep track of the temps each day written down to reference on catch up days. I’m so excited to make one this year. I’m going with a corner to corner pattern for mine.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's so exciting!! What are some of the colors you've chosen? :)

[@marseyrose4]

Got my colors, yarn and key all ready to go! Thanks for the info! I had started my chain already but I liked the amount of chains you started with. What I looked up suggested 212 but I like the 250 you said. I am using a bit thinner yarn so I am using a 5.5mm hook so a little longer seemed better 😉

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I wonder about the 212 pattern, because that would certainly make it more of a display piece as it’s much longer than it is wide

[@kathyschermerhorn1143]

I’m making a temp blanket!! Last year when I first started crocheting more and following you I said - no way! Not making that blanket. Well I’ve crocheted so much that I instantly said “Yes!” When you brought it up again!! Today 1/9 I’m waiting to see if the temperature goes to 60 degrees as predicted so I can change my color 😊Thank you for making all projects you do so much fun which gets us all excited 🤗💖!!!

[@racheltorres8737]

Thank you for this video! So helpful. So cool to see you are from spokane. I'm in Steptoe! Only an hour south of you.

[@ChantelleArts]

Ive never heard of a temperature blanket but this looks so cosy

[@camryns_cute_creations]

It is so cozy!! ❤️

[@RadicallyYou]

Ok, you think it is better to have more colors!? Ok good to know, I am going to do a mood blanket and I wasn't sure if I should consolidate more together you know. So thanks for that tip!

[@nancybello8549]

I’m making one so excited to get started. A few days late - just learning will catch up quickly

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's so exciting!! And no worries at all! I'm already a day late 😂😂

[@yvonnegraham7882]

This will be my first temperature blanket. I will be making hexagon grannies for each day. There will be four rounds, I will use the high, the low, and the feels like temperature in each one. I am excited!

[@lisamessina5952]

I love this. And I have been wanting to make a hexi blanket.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's going to look so amazing!! :) I'm super excited to see how it progresses!

[@brandimichele8806]

i decided to pick up crocheting for the first time and want my first major project to be a temp blanket for this year. i’m excited especially with living in florida and potentially moving to the midwest later this year. the temperature range is going to be insane. this week alone we go between 50 and 80 degrees 😂

[@stuckinmyshow]

This will be my first year making a blanket. My husband has spent the last year building our home and we're very close to moving in so this blanket will be a celebration of our first year in the home he built! I really enjoyed making the key lol the only thing I haven't fully decided was what stitch I want to use lol 😅

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my gosh, that's so exciting that your husband is almost finished building your house!! 😍😍 Congratulations!

[@stuckinmyshow]

@camryns_cute_creations it's been an interesting year but yes super exciting to being so close!!

[@scram93309]

this year im using a color block pattern since i started so late. next hear im using a from the center and just doing one round for each day . I have a color for month change and travel to have the whole year documented and dim going to use a smaller yarn to hold with the day color to show how the year was. like if we go out of town you have a color for traveling that day, then that local weather.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's going to be so amazing! I can't wait to see how it grows :)

[@lynettekammerer2156]

I making one! And would love an accountability buddy. I've only dabbled in crochet but am ready and excited to take on this huge challenge. I have a plan and am very organized and have started my first row!! It was in the 30s here in WV today, 1/1/2024. I love your videos and am going to hop on over to Instagram to follow you there too. 😊

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Thank you so much for your kind words! :) I'm very excited to see how your blanket turns out!! ❤️

[@virginiaw4569]

I have done a handful. I did one for my cousin and his wife as a present. For their year wedding year. I just finished doing one for my best friend it shows the year we meet. I also don't start January 1st. I'll start with, for instance, the month that my best friend and meet. And with me cousin the day afer their wedding the year before and ebd of the wedding day.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That’s so amazing! Those are great gifts :)

[@StirringUpString]

I'm making 4 temperature blankets, each with the years and temps of me and my siblings' birth years. Then I'll be giving it to my mom for her birthday/mother's day!

[@jessicarevere8277]

@@camryns_cute_creationsI have no idea!!! I love in Phoenix Arizona so I need to be strategic on the summer colors. Last year it started 115+ for almost 2 months!

I’m going to be making a temperature blanket for our first full year married :)

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's so exciting!! :) And congratulations! ❤️

[@katrinc.9266]

That sounds awesome! Do you think it can be done with pound of love yarn as well? As this is a big ball of yarn. I was thinking it could be also a birthday year temperature blanket. Like starting from the birthday day of someone up to the day before the day of their birthday. So you can give it to the person at their birthday. What do you think? This would be cool as well.

[@aprilepp74]

Great video! What size is the 251 loop blanket? Id like to make mine throw size but than it might get to long for its width…

[@karencole6967]

First blanket

[@camryns_cute_creations]

So exciting!! :)

[@ashleyhamilton9107]

I have attempted twice to make a temperature blanket both times not finishing much 😅 I kind of want to try another one lmao 🤣 I also would leave my ends till the end... weaving in ends is the worst 😂

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Weaving in ends really is the worst part 😂😂 Do that as you go! I thought it'd be fine to just leave them all until the end so I can do them at once... huge mistake.

[@ashleyharms3297]

When did you log your temperature for the day? Did you do it in the morning, afternoon or evening? I'm thinking I wanna do the highs in my state as well but I'm stressing over when to log that temperature and work that row per day.

[@corinnakavanagh9383]

I'm thinking of doing a baby temperature blanket for my soon to be Grandbaby, but don't want to do a big one with 251chain, what size should I do? Love the colours you used on yours❤

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Hmm, as you decrease the chains, it's going to get much longer than it is wide! I think 150 would still be good, but I wouldn't go below 100 as the dimensions would end up quite distorted!

[@robinwhitaker8635]

First temp blanket

[@kristieskreations]

When starting how many skeins of each color did you purchase? I'm getting ready to order and I'm unsure how much to order

[@belindaslomp1253]

I’m going to do this last year I think as it was our 30th anniversary. I do wish I had found this idea at the beginning of this year though.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That’s totally ok! With a temperature blanket, you can go back online and look at weather reports from previous years!

[@belindaslomp1253]

Love to be temperature blanket buddy . Of course I will be in the US for 7 weeks so will need a lot of catching up when I get home. I’m hoping to meet you at one of your events if I’m in the right place at the right time. I would love that, you are so inspirational and I look forward to your vlogs

[@SuromitaMondal]

I'm thinking of making a temperature scarf instead of a blanket.. because a blanket seems intimidating and I don't know how much I'll be dedicated to it.. so I want to start with sth smaller 😄

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's still totally awesome!! A temperature scarf would be really memorable :)

[@Ahmlu]

I will maybe create a fringe edge 😂 so I don’t have to stress about weaving the ends..

[@camryns_cute_creations]

😂😂 That's a great idea!

[@katrinc.9266]

Like choosing as well the temperature of the area the person is living in. Like I live in Denmark and my mother in law is living in the north of Spain.

[@samanthas5167]

Where did you get your custom tag for this blanket at? I'm planning on making one for both of my nephews for the years they were born but would love to be able to put a tag on it with their name and the year.

[@melaniem4057]

Does it matter which way you turn your work when starting the next row?

[@melaniem4057]

How many stitches for each row would I need if I want the width of the blanket to be 40 inches and the length to be 50 inches?

[@lisastewart2439]

How much yarn should I buy of each color ? I'm thinking of doing one for my sons...each year they were born.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Personally, I started with one skein of each and bought more as I needed! It really does depend on the weather patterns of your area of how much you'll need for a specific color!

[@simmershonna]

I'm gonna be dm'ing you on IG lol. I want to do one for next year because my daughter is having her first baby and I want to make it for her. I also want to do a retro one for this year because my son had my first grandchild this year so I want to do it and give it to them for his first birthday this year in August.

What do you think about something like this during pregnancy, but instead of temperature, you log your symptoms for each day?

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I totally think that could be super interesting and memorable!!

[@hollywhitfield1223]

​@camryns_cute_creations I really want to try it but I wouldn't even know what color to put with each symptom. If you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them. Essentially it'd be a baby blanket for the baby. So I guess nice pastels would be good. What's a good starting chain number for a baby blanket? Blankets are always so daunting to me because I always end up making it bigger and then I get overwhelmed so maybe a baby blanket would be a good way for me to finish a blanket lol

[@lisaproctor4856]

How large is the blanket with 251 stitches
