It’s been a long time since I’ve done CAL roundups on the blog, but I think the Temperature Snake CAL<\/a> warrants a monthly roundup – even if you aren’t joining in, I think you’ll enjoy seeing all the snakes growing throughout the year!<\/em><\/p>\n

We’re one month into the Temperature Snake CAL, and things are starting to get interesting! We now have close to 700 people participating (wow!) and as far as I can tell, about 10% of us will be making southern hemisphere snakes (hot-cold-hot instead of cold-hot-cold). We have some wonderful colour schemes developing, and lots of learning opportunities in the community discussions.<\/p>\n

I’ve made a collage from some of the latest photos that have been posted. These are taken from the CAL threads on Discord and Ravelry, plus some from people who’ve tagged me (@PlanetJune) on FB and IG:<\/p>\n

\"PlanetJuneClick to see the collage larger!<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

If you’re not joining in with the community groups<\/a> yet, please do come over, share your progress with us all, and join in the conversations!<\/p>\n

And, if you’d like your snake to be included in the next monthly roundup, please post an up-to-date pic in the 2 or 3 days before the last day of the month. I’ll try to include as many as possible in each collage.<\/p>\n

Several people have decided to make twin snakes – one for the daily high temperatures, and another for the daily lows. (You can see a few pairs in the collage above!) I wasn’t planning to, but, as my January temperatures were unexpectedly high, I decided to join in with that, and Jewel now has a fraternal twin, Gem:<\/p>\n

\"2023Jewel (top) has the daily high temps, and Gem (bottom) has the daily lows<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m using the same temperature scale for both my snakes, so I anticipate seeing a lot of my coldest colour (purple) in Gem and little or none of my hottest colour (dark red), and vice versa for Jewel. It’s going to be interesting to see how different or similar they are throughout the year!<\/p>\n

If you’d like to join in with that too, catching up on a month isn’t too much work, so now’s the perfect time to start your snake’s twin, before it gets too far behind… You can add some more ‘low’ colours to the bottom of your temperature scale, or just accept that there may be a lot of your coldest colour in your lows snake, as I’m doing.<\/p>\n

And the same applies if you want to join us for the CAL right now! Grab the pattern<\/a> and get caught up – we’d love for you to join us for the rest of 2023 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Roll on February! This is the first year I’ve actually been excited at the prospect of a polar vortex bringing some extra-cold temperatures in the coming days…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
