  • 2027 Temperature Blanket Starter Kit

    Knit a year worth remembering.

    The year your daughter was born. The year you were married. The year someone you love graduated and began something new. Some years deserve a little more than a photograph.

    A temperature blanket lets you tell that story in yarn. Each day’s high temperature determines the color, and two simple rows of knitting become a record of a particular year in a particular place.

    Follow 2027 as it happens, or use historical temperatures to celebrate a year from the past. The palette is our 2027 collection; the year you knit is entirely yours. You can work a little each day, gather a week’s temperatures and settle in for an evening, or knit through a past year at your own pace. 

    Your starter kit includes:

    • One skein of each of the twelve Rowan Felted Tweed colors
    • Two spools of silver DMC Diamant metallic floss
    • Printed pattern and yarn palette card

    Our 2027 palette brings together twelve beautiful shades of Rowan Felted Tweed, moving from deep woodland greens and charcoal through rich purples and reds to glowing golds and orange for the warmest days. The yarn’s soft tweedy texture brings the colors together into a blanket you’ll enjoy using as much as making
    an eyelet row marks the beginning of each month. Add a strand of silver DMC Diamant on birthdays, anniversaries, and other days you want to remember—a little glimmer woven into the story.

    The pattern offers instructions for a blanket or a narrower wrap, with temperature ranges you can adjust for your chosen location.

    This is a starter kit. Additional skeins may be needed depending on your temperatures, gauge, and project size.

    Choose a year that matters to you, and make something beautiful to remember it.
