Questions
- Is it the real Manchester weather?
- Yes: every day's high, low and average from Open-Meteo's historical records (CC BY 4.0) for Manchester. The pattern lists each day with its temperature.
- Which yarn do I need?
- The pattern names real shades and their numbers in Stylecraft Special DK (UK), DROPS Paris (Europe) or Red Heart Super Saver (US), and how many balls of each. Or use your own yarn: the pattern gives grams for each colour.
- What do I get?
- A PDF pattern to print: the cover with your blanket and the colour list, the instructions, every row with its date and a box to tick, and a print of the finished blanket, for €9.90.
