Temperature Blanket Color Chart Printable

by Brandy Burke

Choosing colors for your knit or crochet temperature blanket is one of the most exciting parts – the anticipation of how the colors will come together is crazy. 365 days is a long time. A long time to crochet, and a long time to try to remember which color goes with what temperature. Please enjoy this temperature blanket color chart printable.

There are four options – a pre-printed one with a general temperature range and a blank one if you’d prefer to write in your own temperature ranges. There’s also two where you can also write in the yarn color. I used a hole punch and punched holes in mine (I left room for you to do so) and then laminated the printable and then punched through the holes again so I’m certain this baby is going to stick with me for a year.

If you don’t have a laminator, you could print on a sturdier cardstock and get something that will last.

These were free for a limited time to my subscribers and are now available on my etsy shop – be sure you subscribe to my newsletter so you don’t miss future freebies.

How to Store Crochet Projects (Plus a Free Printable)

by Brandy Burke

I have a  crochet work in progress for nearly every room I frequent – one I work in in my bedroom before bed, one in the office for my lunch breaks or otherwise downtime, one in the living room for when I’m decompressing with a good netflix binge, and several more stored away for later use.

Storing crochet projects has always been a nightmare – I’ve tried different boxes, bins, wads…. but I finally found a solution and I think you’ll love it too.

I am an affiliate. That means if you click on a link on this website and make a purchase I may receive a small commission. Thank you for supporting my work.

Crochet Project Storage Bags

I found these great storage bags on Amazon that are enormous – they measure 16.7 X 12.4 and hold a lot of project and yarn. They’ve been great for all of my granny squares, scarves, hats, and other projects – they didn’t do a great job of holding my 50X60 blanket and 20 scrap balls of yarn I’m using to make it, but even a laundry basket has a hard time at that.

There’s a big bonus to these bags though – keep reading for a freebie

Crochet Project Storage Printable

The bags are great on their own but the big bonus is that the label on the front is a perfect fit for my Work In Progress Printable. These little cards are free to print as many times as you wish – they help you track things like pattern name, hook size, yarn, and little notes (like “need 12 more squares” for instance).

Even if you don’t have these crochet project storage bags, these free printable cards come in handy – enter your info below to be taken to the download page. Once you enter your email address you’ll receive a confirmation email. Click confirm and you’ll be taken to the download page – you’ll also immediately get access to all of my other Crochet printable

Heading Title

Things to consider when deciding how to store crochet projects

  • Choose airtight(ish) storage bags and containers
  • If you can’t store your hook with your yarn, write down the hook size and store it with your project
  • WIPs (works in progress) can get out of hand, so have one place where all of these projects live

Crochet For Cancer Printable

by Brandy Burke

Loving someone who is dealing with something as scary and life disrupting as cancer can leave you feeling pretty helpless. Since my mom’s sudden, out-of-the-blue, completely unexpected colon cancer diagnoses, I’ve turned to the only thing I know to do, crochet. So I made these crochet for cancer printables to help others, too.

Mom has more crochet chemo caps on the way than she’ll ever know what to do with – and her current regimin doesn’t include hairloss – but still, I hope in some tiny way it helps her. It helps me to make them. It makes me feel like I’m doing something at a time that I’ve never felt more helpless.

I know we’re not alone – so many people face cancer every day – leaves you wish you could do SOMETHING.

You have yarn and a crochet hook, so if you’re like me, that something might be to crochet chemo caps, prayer shawls, blankets….something.

How to Use the Crochet for Cancer Printable

Or maybe you just want to use your stash and crochet for a charity – either way, I have these little handmade care instruction card printables – they’re free, print them as many times as you wish for your own personal use (aka: don’t sell them cause that would be wrong and weird) – include them with your handmade item.

You can print 10 to one page and there are faint cut lines to help you quickly turn one sheet of paper into 10 little cards, complete with a caring message, a cancer ribbon, and care instructions. Highlight the appropriate care instructions with a highlighter or circle them with a pen and tuck them in to your handmade gift.

These are broad cancer printables – meaning you can use them for sewn or knit projects as well.

Free Work in Progress Notes Printable

by Brandy Burke

Whether I get midway through a project and experience an interruption or I just get bored with what I’m working on, I usually have multiple projects going in various stages. I was working on the granny square cardigan project that requires like…36 squares or something, and when I came back to it, I was sure I had been using my favorite crochet hook (a 4.5mm). I whipped up a square and it was so tiny compared to the others. I counted and checked to make sure I was supposed to be doing half doubles and not doubles, I blocked the square to be double sure. It was obvious I was using the wrong hook. If you’re curious, I was supposed to be using the 5.5 hook. Both are a pretty shade of green so I am cutting myself some slack for not being sure.

From that moment I created these work in progress printables and at one time, I sold them on my Etsy before I decided to shut down my etsy and just focus on sharing what I love instead of trying to make money from it (because the business of doing your hobby can take the fun away from doing it).

Then I realized, it would be a great thing to share with readers and fans of Hook and Paper – AND, yes, encourage you to sign up for my email list so that I can talk directly with you about the things we both love anyway.

So now, not only do you get the other freebies we’ve chatted about in the past when you subscribe, you also get the Work in Progress printable – you can print them as many times as you wish (but you can’t sell or share them).
