The yarn has been sitting here for ages and my hands have been itching a lot to start using it.
When I saw Jess' blanket in her creative space the other day, I knew I would start my own. So, off to Attic24 to find the pattern. I love Lucy's blog. Everything about it makes me happy.
It's colorful, happy and it's just comfortable to spend some time there once in a while. Besides that, Lucy is a lovely person and her work is very inspirational & I'm certainly not the only one who thinks that way. The first step is to copy the instructions into a word file and make the pics a bit smaller so that I don't have to print a whole book.
The instructions are fabulous & I can't wait to get started. Well, I suppose this is a start already but for me the adventure starts when I pick up my hook and make a little test square...
Looking good! Enjoy :)
ReplyDeleteI wonder how long this one will take :) atleast no sewing pieces together this time :) Good luck and have fun!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE Attic24! Isn't it the best? I printed out her hexagon pattern and was madly crocheting hexs on my holiday. I've yet to post about them (it was a big learning experience!) Anyway, my next challenge was going to be her ripple blanket pattern. So excited to see you're making one Mitsy and I can't wait to see how it turns out. Good wishes! Kx
ReplyDeletehey! good luck for your new project then!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it will be great again!!!
veel succes Mitsy!!
ReplyDeleteI bet you will have a beautyfull new piece aftere a few months?
That blog does look really neat. Talk about colorful pictures!
ReplyDeleteI really like that ripple stitch too! If it were me....I would probably finish the project I had already started because I need goals finished to stay motivated for new ones! Good luck and of course let us know how it all comes out!
Ooo, how very exciting to start your ripple. I'm hoping to start mine soon to so I will follow yours with interest. Keep us posted please:-)
ReplyDeletei know what you mean about attic 24 ~ Lucy makes colourful work that looks good enough to eat.
ReplyDeletemakes me want to find the time to make a blanket too :)
I always wanted to have one for myself but they take forever to make and besides, I am more of a knitter :-)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the progress!
Lovely blanket.
ReplyDeleteHave a good time. Crochet is my favotit over knitting too.
Yay! I have almost finished mine- in a week. I am very happy with the results,allbeit a little on the tiny side! Yours will be amazing... can't wait to see your progress! jess xx
ReplyDeleteI loved making my baby ripple blanket with some scrap yarns. When I'm done with my Granny Squares afghan I may have to go out and get yarn to make a full sized ripple blanket ! :)
ReplyDeleteone- thank you so much for introducing me to Jess's blog. Her love for color soooo reminds me of my own and makes me feel less guilty for being such a color spaz. How lovely.
ReplyDeletetwo- Do it! I just started my first ripple blanket a few days ago. I'm working in treble crochet, so it will be a little looser. Maybe a good summer evening blanket. Can;t wait to see your progress!
