Soft Waves Ripple update

Yeah... First week of Rose Festival here in the City of Roses, Portland Oregon.
So it seems only appropriate to hike a whole three blocks over to one of our neighborhood rose gardens...since it's not raining as one would expect this week. This also happens to be a spot I enjoy sitting and rippling. :D


Pattern here 200 Ripple Stitch Patterns .


Yarns.. Caron Simply Soft, RH Soft Yarn, and a few pale tones of TLC Essentials.


Hook : Clover Soft Touch sizes G / 4.4 mm and H / 5.0mm .
Started with 200 ch. wide. Measures 50 inches wide.

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.

Closet Rippler here :)

Finally here...

I have been so inspired by all of your entries.
Beautiful work.., and such fun blogs !


Been rippling for a few weeks now.
Slow but sure ...
Realized I should let you know how much I appreciate the time you have all taken to share with the rest of us quiet ones.
We thank you.

Plan What plan ?

Tons-o-Fun though. :D
