So I'm thinking of making a mood blanket, and am trying to come up with around 8-10 mood. So far I have sad (light blue), depressed (dark blue), scared/anxious (dark gray), happy (yellow), mad (russet), hopeful (dark purple), goofy (verigated), blah (olive green), painful (forest green), calm (turquoise), hopeless (black), ecstatic (bright yellow or bright verigated). Think that's enough? I've got good and bad moods, and a range of colors. Today would be a yellow day. It's all going to be bordered in a linen color. Yarns have been ordered and now I just have to decide between squares, hexagons, or stripes. Leaning towards hexagons. I think this way I can follow my love of crafts as well as track my mental health recovery. My therapist suggested journaling but I hate writing, this way I can note a few words about why I was that mood that day and have a visual representation to focus on. Plus, I get a blanket out of it. In Michigan that's always needed.
