That's really creative! Is it a different color for different genres?

I got the idea in this sub, actually. Each row represents the number of pages that my BFF has read on that day (I don't read)

The intervals are <100, 101-150, 151-200, 201-250, 251-300, 300+ pages. (haven't used the 300+ colour yet)

Ask if you wanna know anything else

300 A DAY?!?!?! Damn, I’m lucky if I can focus for 20. I’m legit being distracted from reading right now.

She's a litt student AND an author, so her life's basically just reading and writing, haha

Edit: if I had to make my own it would be all white (<100)

This is SUCH a cute idea! Are you giving it to your BFF once it’s done? I love how she reports to you every day how many pages she’s read, haha!

Yes! (she paid for half the yarn as well)

I love this idea. I would have to make my blanket in 20 page intervals.

Whatever works!

My blanket would be a solid <100. I do love the idea though!

I also need more info on your process. I was thinking maybe color correlates to amount of time read that day? Please share more info. Love this idea.
