OH! Your blanket looks amazing Michelle!  Thank you so much for sharing it with us! 🤗💖🧶

Beautiful colors Marlene! 😍

No Worries Marlene!  You are not the only person who fell in love with a size 4 weight yarn and want to use it on your Temperature Blanket.  You might also want to go up to a crochet hook H/8-5.00mm for you stitches to have a nice tension.  Yes, your blanket dimensions will result in a larger blanket than what mine will but that's just the nature of Temperature Blankets.  To be overly long.  It's about the project and what you are capturing, not necessarily making a blanket with common dimensions.  IF you would like to take out weekends that might help.  And knowing that at the beginning of your project will keep everything consistent.  Just be aware when we come across stitches that have a front side and a back side, reach out to me so that I can help you set up right for that month.  🤗💖🧶

Great question Sharon!  I won't be creating a brand new blanket border for this temperature blanket project.  I do plan on making a couple different blanket border tutorial options throughout the year that I will reference for people to pick from.  If you would like to keep the ends out on purpose for fringe Go For It!  🤗💖🧶

Sweet!  That's great! 😊💖🧶

Diane Vodola Great question Diane, Yes, we ideal want to have 210 stitches in row 1 and row 2. Row 3 however I added a grouping [sc/dc] at the end because it looked a little too uneven for me.  By adding this extra group it will increase the number of stitches per row to 212.  So, from row 3 on up for the month of January you will have 212 stitches per row.  I hope this helps.

MARLENE LEUENBERGER YAY!  I'm so glad you found the problem and that you are moving forward!  I'm sure that feels so good!  Can't wait to see how your blanket works up!

Hi Ria!  I am so excited for you to join in this project with us!  YAY first time Temperature Blanket!  Haha, LOVE that you have a special color for hurricane days.  That's pretty cool and really personalizes your blanket.  Can't wait to see how your blanket works up!

That is a great question Diane, didn't think of that one.

Hi Marlene!  Thank you so much for reaching out.  I want you to feel comfortable asking any question you come across in this project journey.  Hmm, because row 1 is just a single crochet row there are only a few places a counting error can occur.  

First, let's look at what Diane mentioned.  Remember, the loop on our crochet hook does not count as a chain.  Make sure there are a total of 211 chains off of the hook.

Second, let's shrink the number of stitches you make then put a stitch marker in to every 20 stitches.  This way we are catching our count even earlier reducing human error.

And third, when making your first single crochet stitch for row 1, make sure you are only skipping over one chain and crocheting into the second chain.  Ideally, we want an even number of single crochet stitches in row 1.

Give this a try and let us know how it goes. 🤗💖🧶

Oh girl!  I have never heard of a Goddess-Theme but I kinda LOVE it! 😆 This sounds like a really cool monthly subscription box!  Thank you so much for sharing!
