Ripple Washcloth Madness

 I think I have gone mad, actually a little crochet ripple mad.  I have been resisting the ripple for a long, long time.  I love to see it, I love that you are all obsessed with it and I was not.  Until recently I have held firm and steady, and I have not taken the plunge.  Well that is until I made a visit to one of my favorite blogs, Cozy Things.  You see Kristen made ripple washcloths and towels instead of a big blanket.  She tempted me with the beauty and simplicity of the project, and again I have to state it wasn't a big blanket, which I do not have the time or energy for.  Kristen is an amazing crocheter, knitter and crafter.  Her blog is a delight, go and give her a visit, I promise you will be amazed, too.

 You can get a lot or rippling done when you are sitting on you behind all weekend with a nasty cold.  I used your basic Sugar and Cream Cotton yarn.  I just chained 39 and went to town.  I didn't change colors I let the yarn do all the fun work for me.  I am making two more of the cloths above for a little Mother's Day present for my friend Lynda.

The reddish ones are for me.  They look great in my kitchen.  I looked at several ripple patterns, and ended up using the famous Lucy's of Attic24.  I had to give it a few tries as I simply was not reading all of the directions, seems I never learn that lesson.  The only thing I changed was to adjust the pattern slightly so it wasn't so wide.  Simple, easy, fun.

What are you up to today?
