{creative space:ripple-ish-ness}

Why hello there, creative type people!
What are you up to today?

My bit of creative-ness is a bit of crochet ripple-ish-ness.


The cross stitch is going oh so fine, thanks for asking!
will show you the final product soon-
it was a great, get it done, type of project,
and Frenchy to boot.

Back to the crochet...
I have had issues with the ripple pattern in the past,
mainly just what to do when you get to the end of each row...
I always seemed to lose a stitch somewhere.


Of course, Lucy from Attic 24 has come to my rescue,
with her ever so easy to follow pattern,
abounding with pictures to show us visual types.

If the ripple has ever got you beat,
go take a looksy at Lucy's pattern.

    Love a crochet ripple, I'm yet to try a ripple blanket though, it's on my "To Do' List. Nice selection of colours, your crochet is beautiful. I love trawling through Lucy's blog it's so inspirational and swamped with beautiful colours.

    Your ripples are looking amazing. Beautiful. I'm hoping my crochet skills will be up to the task of a ripple blanket in 2011.
