Ripple dreams... part 3

Have you been looking forward to see the progress on my ripple blanket ?
I have been eager to show you.
Rippling is so much fun, I have been really enjoying myself.
Although I did have to unripple a few times because I didn't count carefully enough but I also found a way to cheat when I didn't feel like unrippling it all. :)
I just added a double crochet together (dctog) or did an extra double crochet when neccesary. And the fun part is, you can't see it - I love it.
Are you ready?
Right now, it looks like one, big long scarf...
Do you like the colors together?
Bad bad me, I still haven't sewed in the ends...
Each row takes me about 1,5 hour to finish and I did one every day this week. Not sure if I can keep up with this pace but we'll see.

I also think I have not ordered enough yarn & I don't have any yellow which I regret. I need to find some more yarn before I complete all first rows. Might do some shopping today.
Have you been rippling yet? Get inspired at Lucy's Attic! :)

  7. I DO love the colors together! You know, you've inspired me to start posting some progress on a gorgeus granny square blanket I want to make. Maybe that way I'll finish it some day.

  12. I soooo feel like trying this! 1.5hours per color ? but you make one long stripe, right? Well, congrats to you. I really feel like crochetting now I made a whole lotta flowers when I was in ARG to make something with them later, but I forgot them over there so.... errmmm... I guess not. :)

  14. I just love your ripple so much! I am very tempted to start one but am too addicted to the quick fix crochet projects at the moment.

  19. I made a ripple blanket not too long ago, with "luscious" yarn in the color ways "peanut butter and jelly" and "lemondrop." It is indeed luscious, though it did shrink after I washed it...

  20. Looks great, love the colours.

    I admire your stamina for such a big project.
    I'm more a person who goes for the quick results.

    Looking forward to the updates =^x^=
