Ripple blanket…

Hi there…I’ve got lots of photos to share of my ripple blanket….the light wasn’t good on some of them and they differ so much depending on which computer screen I use!  I used the utterly gorgeous Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino yarn for the blanket – it’s so soft and snuggly.  Not sure how many 50g balls I got through….quite a few, but it was well worth it.  The edging was finished with a picot stitch….I got the inspiration from here …thank you.  The ripple pattern is from Attic24.

 

 

  

 

 

 We had some visitors to our garden today….not the feathered variety, though we do get lots of those!  Seamus and Yogi came to see us!  Beautiful blue sky and lovely weather for a hack :-)

 

 Well, off to watch Dancing On Ice now…..and then to decide what to crochet next…….hmmmm…………..decisions decisions!

See you all soon :-)  

    

The finished bag…

Well, I have finally finished my crochet bag!  Actually, I finished it a few weeks ago but haven’t got around to uploading my photos.  I really enjoyed making it – progress was quick and easy, just as I like it.  Thanks to Attic24 for the wonderful tutorial.  I’m going to attempt to add a lining to the inside…it should finish it off nicely. 

 

 

Thanks to my model – you did a great job!

I’m nearly finished with my ripple blanket.  Just a few rows to go and then a few rows of edging…loved making this blanket…really don’t want it to end!  It’s not that I’m stuck for things to make…..hmmmmm, I have lots of things on the ‘to make’ list….deciding what to make next is the problem!

I’m still enjoying photography…..seems everyone else in the family is enjoying it too….here’s some shots of one our outings…..

Spot the photographers!

Seems they’ve got the photography bug too!

Hope to see you all very soon….with photos of my finished ripple!
