Notes

I’m using the same supplies as for my 2018 Temperature Blanket. The only difference is that I will start with January 1st in the center, then “spiral” around that hexagon until the year is over.

Please see the 2018 Temperature Blanket project page for details.

Spiral Hexagon Blanket Pattern

A few people asked how the spiral blanket works. Here is another project where I used that method, in this car seat baby blanket project.

Missed that year …

… but would like to pick up another year, another time.
