2023 Crochet with Me Temperature Afghan CAL Pattern Season 1 is now on day 10 and we are repeating the 7 rows that make the pattern. If you are just joining in, you can find all of the instructions for each day, hints and tips and the materials in the Crochet with Me tab at the top of the page!

Below, I have the instructions for the 7 row repeat (rows 3-9) so you don’t have to keep switching back to other posts… I hope that is helpful. If you need the beginning rows 1 & 2, you can find those in the Crochet with Me tab at the top of the page.

This is a suggested temperature chart and they yarn colors I am using. The range may not suit where you live so you can adjust it by moving it how you like or using less colors.

**Since my home town temperatures are within a range from lows of 10 degrees to highs of upper 90’s, I am going to use the daily average for myself. In order to use all of the yarn colors I purchased(25 colors), I have listed how I varied my temp chart increments. You can change yours up too if you like to get more or less colors. The above picture is just a suggestion of yarn colors and temperatures.

2023 Crochet with Me Temperature Afghan CAL Season 1 The 7 Row Repeat Instructions

Today for me in Mt. Shasta California, The Low was 32 degrees, High was 37 degrees …. My color today for the average is 35 degrees, On my personalized chart that is Pink!

When I woke up this morning there was several inches of new snow, it was a bit crazy driving to work! By the time I came home it was back to rain/slush… Still we are in a huge cycle of precipitation and flooding is a big issue in the state!
