Notes

A miniblanket of average temperatures in Huntingdon, PA by month for every 5 years since 1975 in honor of my birthday. The graph was generated using the open meteo api and could be used to generate a similar blanket for historical data.

Made for my talk: Data Driven Art: Local Historical Weather Patterns

Slides. Recording.

Initial blanket was presented in August so only went through July. Blanket was updated to full 2025 in February 2026 and reseamed prior to the Make or Bake your Science event at PSU.

Basic pattern is 4 stockinette rows of 10 stitches and one reverse stockinette per month in year as mini scarf with the edge stitches slipped and the ends woven in as went. Meant to join miniscarves as went but that was unsuccessful.
