Here’s a neat idea for a crochet temperature blanket that’s the size of a throw. Each square represents one month out of the year. I really like how the distinct color differences make the seasons stand out.

3. Corner Temperature Blanket

Most crochet temperature blanket ideas give equal weight to each unit of measurement, whether it be a day, a week, or a month. When you start at one corner like the blanket above, the later parts of the year will get more attention as the size of the rows increase.

4. Mosaic Temperature Blanket

I especially like the look of temperature blankets, where the colors blur together rather than stand out in stark stripes. Commonly accomplished by using linen stitch, you can also get this effect with the mosaic crochet technique, as seen here.
