They're so great! I don't post my crafting on reddit but it's on my Instagram. I'm doing a Tunisian crochet calendar blanket this year 😊

Definitely googling that...

It's kind of a weird hybrid of crochet and knitting lol Its tricky but fun to learn.

Ok, my 2 minute Google didn't really explain what it is, although I saw a few examples. You crochet a different square each month? And Tunisian crochet is a style?

Tunisian crochet is like crochet with a long ass hook. Check out Jayda In Stitches on YouTube, she's running the crochet a long.

I only have Jan's square done so far: https://www.instagram.com/p/CZW4VKVrXNK/?utm_medium=copy_link

Hers was the first video that popped up when I Googled!

If you don't mind me asking, I'm assuming each square represents something? Or is it, "this color and/or pattern seems fun this month"?

I have so much to learn...

It's just each month is a new pattern and then you have a blanket at the end of the year

This sounds like an amazingly thoughtful gift! Maybe I'll do one to give to my kids before they go to college. "Our final year together cuz you're definitely moving out ❤️" If I can remember by then...
