The number of colors used in a crochet temperature blanket can vary depending on the desired effect and the temperature range being tracked.
For example, some crafters may choose to use a different color for every degree of temperature change, resulting in a large number of colors being used. On the other hand, others may choose to use a more limited color palette, such as a range of blues for colder temperatures and a range of oranges and reds for warmer temperatures.
In general, most temperature blankets use between 10 to 20 colors, although some may use more or fewer depending on the temperature range being tracked and personal preference. Ultimately, the number of colors used is up to the individual crafter, and can be adjusted to suit their desired effect and level of complexity.

I totally fell in love with the first pattern pictured above. It is in the square patterns of pink, mauve, blue, green. As many times as I tried I cannot bring up the pattern. If indeed it is a free pattern I would love to have it, I have knit and crochet for 62 years but that pattern speaks to me personally so I would love to make it. Thank you so much. I appreciate your artistic talents. Kelly.
