Can you crochet cold? Of course, because the weather blanket crochet was also this week steeply downhill. If you have no idea what this is about, you can read it in the Pattern to Crochet a Weather Blanket.
11th Week of Crocheting a Weather Blanket
In the first days of the week we still had hope that the Russian cold will pass us by. But then it went downhill rapidly and here raged the snow chaos. Whether he should put on the summer tires, the houseman asked me last week. How good that I have insisted on the German proverb from O to O, which means to have winter tires on your car from October to Easter!
Well you already know that I’m not a fan of the cold temperatures, but the snow pattern compensated me. While the new colours last week felt a little strange, I think they fit in wonderfully with the new rows. You can already feel the change and I think the colour gradient towards spring will look wonderful.

Projection for the Weather Blanket
After this week, my blanket has grown to a length of 53cm and weighs 1024g. So it has cracked the 1kg mark and is even bigger than half a meter. Well, the little ones are growing so fast! 😉 The factor for this week is 4.7 and thus a final length of 249cm and a final weight of 4794g is expected. As you can see, everything is in the green zone and there are only minor fluctuations.

Hands-on-task!
Here comes the next hands-on-task! Write a comment describing the work on your blanket and attach a photo of your blanket! If you are not ready yet, you can do that anytime! The following questions could help you: Which weather cover is the heaviest and longest? What tips do you have for others? If you like you can also send your projection again!
