January 2026 - Crocheted Blanket completions!

 Here are two crocheted blankets that were finished in January of 2026.

The Book Blanket is finally completed!  With 42 granny squares completed, each square represents a book read in 2025 and uses the book's cover color in the design color scheme.

The next blanket was a collaboration of both Kyle and me - the Snow Apocalypse blanket.  

We each received a Christmas Advent Yarn Calendar.  The calendar held just a small skein of colored yarn in 24 of the boxes - the 25th had crochet notions!  

It wasn't a lot of yarn, so we added a couple of skeins of white yarn that had a small halo to the texture of the yarn.  We thought this added to the snowy effect for the snowflake.  

Kyle crocheted all the snowflake designs in each square, and I crocheted the color square around the snowflake to complete the granny square. 

 The squares were given another round of white yarn and attached together using a mattress stitch.  A scalloped border to complete the blanket.  

We finished the blanket during the 2026 Snow weekend that we had in January, hence the name Snow Apocalypse!

That's our January crocheted blankets!  Thank you for looking!
