Well...here it is...my latest project is an old fashioned ripple! The pattern is from a Leisure Arts pamphlet from 1974 by Jean Leinhauser.
I know, I wasn't going to start this until I finished my Granny Blues blanket but...I ran into a little snag with it, (I will upload pics later when I get my camera back from my daughter), so I have to frog a huge amount of my beautiful granny stripe blanket.
Anyway...back to this fun ripple blanket...
...don't you just love these colors?
I am struggling a bit because I have never done a random color blanket. Yes, I know, a little OCD happening with my crochet, but...I always have a nice "symmetrical repeat" pattern on everything I do so...I'm struggling not to make this so "rigid" and to free my mind and the colors to crochet a totally random color way. I am doing a sequence of sort, (I have to have some organization in this thing), so I am doing two rows of one color and then one row of another and so on. Does that make sense?
Anyway... I will keep you up to date on my progress.
Also, I have made a few granny squares for my CAL's. I will post those later on.
This is where I'm hooking up this week!
Happy Crocheting!
