~the oval ripple placemat~

[dobermama]

Love it! TYFS!

Thanks for the compliments ladies - but I think that this oval ripple pattern is only good for a placemat. I've been thinking (and RoseRed made mention) that the middle should be a lot longer to be able to retain the oval shape for an afghan. I will come up with a longer oval ripple in the next couple of days and post it on my blog.

Thanks ladies.

IF I figure it right...if the beginning chain was increased in 8 chain increments the pattern should work with of course additional dc because each "rib" is an increment of 8 (2 sets of v stitches, 4 ch to each v?) ? Someone correct me if I'm wrong/off...ok I'm off but anyone who knows me knows that already...

That is really a very clever adaptation.

Very nice pattern. I think I will add this to my list of patterns to try and bump it towards the top.

 

I know that I make my centers for my 4x6 granny ghans about 2 feet long and they come out to the 'golden ratio'. hmmmm

 

(I have such a headache for 2 days now - math is just beyond me at the moment)

 

Ack... to the golden ratio. I just finished a math class after being out of school for several years and this was one thing mentioned in my research paper. It was a little beyond me too.

Looks quite nice in red.

Thanks ladies.

It's lovely. And the contrast color is great.

[Startigerlily]

It's beautiful!

 

Have you thought of making a table runner size? That could be quite lovely.
