my creative space

baby round ripple

I stumbled onto this fun ripple-along and decided to join in! I'm planning on doing two round baby ripple blankets, one boy and one girl. I've started with the boy one. I'm using this pattern for the blanket and it's working up very fast.

As usual (pretty much), I'm using Loops & Threads Impeccable solids and a size 5.5 hook. The colors are grass, aqua, heather and clay, I think these colors look pretty good together.

I'm still working on the groovyghan when I can find the time. It's coming along slowly still, but I do have another strip finished and about to be sewn to the rest of the blanket. I should have an update to share soon, I hope. I really do need to get working on it more, there's only 7 weeks until my daughter's birthday!

  2. I've been wanting to join in that ripple along for a couple weeks now but I have too many other projects going on so I'm trying to frantically finish :). Love your color choices and can't wait to see the girl color combo you've chosen. Loops & Threads is so soft and affordable, I love it too!

  3. This is lovely - I've not seen a circular ripple before. I really want to join in the ripple along but I've got so much else on - by the time I buy my yarn I expect everyone else will have finished!!
    Looking forward to seeing how yours progresses :o)
