Here's my ripple afghan, Show me your ripple afghans!

[Merlot]

If you don't mind, would you share your pictures here?

 

I've only made one before, and it was slow going. (All that single crochet is so time consuming.)

 

I loved it when it was done, and it gets alot of use when the weather is cold. It's holding up very well too.

 

I'm considering another one (if I can find the right color yarn I'm looking for) and I need some inspiration.

 

Here's mine, by the way:

 

 

Thanks!

One of the best things about ripples is that there are no squares to sew together!!

No pics but have you considered dc? they're the only ones i do now and they seem to keep me warm just fine and hold up well too.

i love ripples and have made too many to count- only one of them was sc. i never got complaints from anyone that recieved one.

Mine is in dc, too. No finished pic yet, but here is the "in progress" pic taken a while back.

This one's warm as iron! I used two strands (one light, one medium) just scrap yarns. The pattern is called a "wave" stitch, from a 1970's Reader's Digest Book of Needlework. It was a simple pattern, worked in doubles. That's Stevie modeling the afghan! In the photo it is displayed on a queen size bed. My Mom LOVED it, so I gave it to her.

[Merlot]

shelain22 - that's so neat. I love the shape of it!

 

DesertCrocheter - I love the color of the baby one. The green and white one is neat with the vertical stripes. I love that shade of purple in the last one. What kind of yarn/color is that?

 

pb&j - that chenille looks cozy. I love the colors in the last one.

 

evelyn - all one color looks elegant, I think.

 

redhead - I much prefer to dc - goes faster. I may try that. Thanks!

 

lene - very nice WIP. Thanks for mentioning that it's dc.

 

Katie45964 - That's beautiful!

 

Thanks for all your input!

Patty, my mom's purple and white ripple was made using Caron Simply Soft. It was indeed super soft!! Patty (Boy, that's weird, I'm addressing myself!)

Here is the one I am working on - using up a bunch of scrap yarn pieces:

 

I figure it will be perfect for DD to take to college next year. She loves it.

 

 

 

[Merlot]

Ooh! What a great idea to use up scraps.

[irikel]

That is a really nice one!! I'm lovin it.

I finally worked out how to post my ripple afghan here.

I trimmed both with an Eyelash type yarn.

The rectangular pattern I used was done in SCs but I used DCs and the only difference was the starting CH at the beginning of each row.

 

Have fun.

Colleen

[Merlot]

AggieMay - what great ideas!

[Stitchinpick]

Colleen, WOW! I love the round ripple. It is so bright and cheerful! I have made lots of that pattern. Your color combination is a knockout! I printed a pic of it so I can copy it. Thanks for posting.

 

RebeccaV, Your chenille WIP is awesome. I love the color and it must feel heavenly. Also, I have always wanted to do a ghan in the RH Light and Lofty. It must REALLY be warm. I bet it worked up fast! How long did that take?

[Crochet Fanatic]

Ok...now I am inspired. I don't have a picture, just wanted to let you all know your afghans are beautiful!!
