Hi everyone! I'm new to crocheting, but I decided to take on a ripple baby blanket for a cousin whose wife is expecting their first child in June. I'm about halfway through it, using the pattern/guide from Attic24. I'm finding that it's going by REALLY fast and I've already decide I want a bigger one for myself in the same colors eventually. I'm using Bernat Softee Baby in Soft Red and Yellow (I think the proper name is Lemon but my goddaughter had a little fun with the label/skein). It's taking a little longer since I need to rewind the skein but I'm loving every moment of the actual crocheting!

Ann,

 

Sounds like a great fun project!!! Enjoy......and keep us posted on how it's going!

 

A Ripple Was My First Project Also....

[AnnM]

Finished the first baby blanket! If I haven't mentioned it already, it's in Bernat Baby Softee in Soft Red and Lemon, using Attic24's ripple pattern. I put a simple edging of two rows of single crochet in the Lemon. It looks wonderful! I know I made a little mistake on the turning chains but it still looks great and I love it. I'll post a photo tomorrow when the sun comes out.

I haven't been crocheting much lately, but I'm trying to get started again.

 

Shelley,

 

Really nice....very colorful:clap...I have always wanted to do a scrapghan but didn't want to contend with all the ends.

 

What are the colors of your livingroom ripple?

The scrap ghan was fun& I used scraps that were long enough to do a row or 2. My LR afghan is gold, dk sage, claret, pumpkin, & lt tan.

 

Thank you...hubby taking me to get yarn today :-) I'm thinking I'm gonna do shades of brown?!?

I just discovered the ripple stich the other day .. had never attempted one and thought it was a fairly easy pattern once I understood the motion of it. It took a few tries but I thought it was pretty. I also found another type of riple online during a search and this one is a 3d type and is nothing like the ripple (wave) type. If I can find that site again I will post it here.

My youngest LOVES orange. She picked the orange and then I found the ginseng and she adored it. then insisted on purple too.

 

although I do love the greys in the original pattern pictures.

 

the original pattern says to have 2 rows of each - but I am doing 2 colour, 1 white, 2 colour. it was too much white with 2 rows.

 

 

here is an updated picture -

[rippleaddiction]

wow...it's coming out beautiful!!! I started mine last night, but thought the chain 240 was going to be too long...should have went with it, I didn't realize how much it was going to bunch up...so before I go any further I'm going to take out the 1 1/2 rows I have done and extend the chain...as soon as I get some done, I'll post a pic...

 

Bonnie

[hypermama]

yeah that 240 is a bit staggering isn't it? I did the same thing. lol

 

what colours are you using?

[rippleaddiction]

lol, it is, but once you get used to the pattern, it's not too bad...I am using RH medium thyme, carrot & fall...is yours really floppy, like there's to many stitches? does it flatten out the more you get done. I love the look of the pattern, I just don't like how much it's curling...

[hypermama]

it does start to lay flat. there's still a teeny bit of bunching, but the more rows I do the flatter it gets.

This is pretty. I am saving it. thanks for sharing:)

[hypermama]

how're the ripples going?

 

mine's starting to actually look like an afghan, and not just a long strip of something. lol at least that's what the Mr says.

caught her snuggling...

Very nice ripple Christine. I have one in WIP status. I take it out every once in awhile. It's one for me so I hardly get around to it since I'm usually working on projects for friends and family or charity.

 

It may have a few more rows since this pic but you get the idea...

[hypermama]

I like the colours!

[marpan79]

I finished mine a few weeks ago.......

[KathyWho]

Very Beautiful........The colors are lovely and the size is perfect for the twin bed.

 

This CAL just continues to thrive!

 

I have mine done.......finally......just need to get a picture taken. And I am in process of crocheting a "wave" pattern. Will try to post that pic also.

 

Happy Rippling,

KathyWho

[jenniferelyse74]

Very pretty, Marisa.

[marpan79]

Thanks Kathy and Jennifer

 

and Kathy, PS....that's a queen size bed

[hypermama]

very nice!

 

I'm about half done my ripple, it will fit a twin bed when its done.
