TUNISIAN CROCHET PATTERN

This modern and fun temperature blanket is worked in long panels using a combination of 2 Tunisian Crochet stitches to create textured ridges. The ridges give the illusion of a circular shape when viewed from an angle. Each panel is worked separately and then stitched together to form the blanket.

360 days are tracked as 15 long panels representing 24 days each. 5 days of the year are then strategically “skipped” when working the panels and instead, their corresponding high temperature colors are then used in the joining of specific panels and in the border.

This pattern would also make a great stash-busting project as well!
