Tunisian Crochet Blanket, 4′ x 9′
Artist’s note: I used Tunisian Crochet to make a blanket in the year 2020. I crocheted one row representing the average temperature (per the National Weather Service’s website) in the location where I was at noon on each day. Although I had anticipated much more travel in the year than there was in the end, there were new adventures such as “stay at home” orders and a move to Madison to start work at UW.
