Ripple in an Oregon Spring


I remember when I planted only a very few, very tiny purple hyacinth bulbs here. True to their reputation.. they have increased beautifully.
And the ripple increases as we speak.
The facts:
Pattern is the soft waves from Jan Eaton's book, " 200 Ripple pattern stitches".
Yarns : Caron Simply Soft, Red Heart Soft Yarn, TLC Essentials in their lighter colors, as they are thinner yarn due to the dye, Bernat Satin, and a few unknown stash scraps.
Hooks: Both sizes G and H...depending on the yarn size. With the thicker yarn I am using the smaller hook..which seems to help the various yarns appear uniform in size.

I'm loving this experience.
