Original Tempestries are a visual embodiment of a year’s worth of daily high temperatures. A finished Tempestry will measure about 10-14″ wide and about 4-5″ long. The size will vary depending on the gauge of the crocheter (though gauge is not important).

A single Original Tempestry makes for a beautiful personalized wall hanging, perfect for commemorating a particular year — perhaps of a birth, a graduation, or a wedding.

We of course used an old-fashioned metal knitting needle to hang ours, but a simple wooden dowel or driftwood or lots of other things would work just as well.

Multiple Original Tempestries, such as the collection we are currently creating for our little corner of the Pacific Northwest, make for a striking historical display of changing temperatures across the years.

All our work is done in a smoke-free but cat-friendly home. While this particular cat is not prone to playing with yarn, her hair (as any pet owner knows) does occasionally stray.

Beading Options

Add 25 glass beads to commemorate a specific date, or add precipitation data and beads to show precipitation throughout the year.
