Skinny Ripple Progress


Hello there! 
I've had a bit of time today to do a few rows on my Skinny Ripple Blanket, it is growing slowly as I have a lot of other things that seem higher priority.   I do love all these colours though, I tend to come back to variations on this combination in so many things I make!  


This is a very easy pattern and I just love how the chevrons are so pointy.  After the initial chain row which is a bit tedious, it is smooth sailing.  My only regret is that I should have made it wider, I didn't realise how much the chevrons would pull the sides in and shrink the blanket width!  So it is a small cot blanket now! :)  


So, do you have a busy week ahead?  
My boys are back to school tomorrow after the holidays, so I'm thinking my days will get a little bit of structure back.  It is time for the second instalment of my Yarny Love Club so I will be working on sending those out later in the week.    Exciting! 

Talk soon!

    Great colour combination, I an looking for a new blanket pattern so this may well be the one. I do get bored with row after row of the same colour, even though it does cut down the amount of end sewing.

    What a beautiful ripple! I love the added texture working in the back loops give it.(I too never seem to judge that first row right for a ripple.) Working on some gifts at the moment, then I hope to return to my round throw in grey, very textured with popcorn stitches.Enjoy the day!

    Pretty blanket 😀 I love how puffed up the chevrons look. Those colours are beautiful as well.

    The skinny ripple is very effective. It makes a big difference to only do 1 row with each colour.
