“Yellow, yellow, yellow are all my clothes! …. That´s why I love everything that is so yellow …” I hummed this week while crocheting the weather blanket. It´s a German children’s song, maybe you hummed “Yellow submarine”. 😉 If you have no idea what this is about, you can read it in the Pattern to Crochet a Weather Blanket.
14th Week of Crocheting a Weather Blanket
We hat a lot of joy, you and me, as you could also see in the group. Because it´s finally spring and that raises the minds as you know. Most of us reached the 20°C mark on Saturday and had been allowed to crochet a new colour, yellow according to the original colour chart.
| Day | Temperature | Weather |

| 94 | 20 | storm |
| 95 | 14 | unstable |
| 96 | 12 | some clouds |
| 97 | 22 | sun |
| 98 | 19 | sun |
When you take a look at the weather blanket, you immediately see what April weather really means, because it´s a wonderful mix of colours and patterns. This is of course a great change and we can be curious if April remains the most varied month of the year. One or the other has to get comfortable with the new colour, but the experience shows that this will happen on it´s own as soon as there will be more of it.
This week I took this overview of the entire weather blanked. I think the at some point I have to stay on a ladder to photograph the whole blanket. 😉
Projection for the Weather Blanket
Then let´s move on to the usual ritual. The weather blanket now weighs 1315g and has a length of 70cm. With a factor of 3.7 for today, we get 259cm and 4865g. Due to the beautiful weather and the many rays of the sun, the weather blanket has grown again neatly.
