I have finished the temperature blanket panel for 2025! This is a decade-long project. Each stripe represents the local daily high temperature in farenheit: red is 90s, orange is 80s, yellow is 70s, and so on.

To capture the entire winter and summer seasons, the first bottom row actually starts on November 1st of the previous year, and the numbers are placed on January 1st of the labeled year, and it continues up from there.

A large crochet blanket that looks like a bar graph in stripes of rainbow colors, with 6 long vertical panels labeled with the years 2020 through 2025. Each panel shows the seasonal shifts in the daily high temperature. Notable highlights are the extremely hot summer of 2020, the very cold polar vortex of 2022, a strange week of warm days in the spring of 2023, and the extremely mild winter of 2024. The most recent panel shows evidence of our very short, wet summer this past year, with many fewer orange and red days.
