My new WIP

A while ago, I was browsing Attic 24. I'm sure you've heard of this wonderful, inspirational crochet blog. If you haven't, you must check it out!
Anywho, I scrolled and clicked through all the colorful pictures and tutorials; drooling at each and every project. The one I really loved was the Granny Stripe. I'd seen the project many times around on various blogs. So when I finished my Round Ripple, I knew that would be the perfect new project! I started on it last night and I'm enjoying it immensely.
The stripes are so quick and easy. If you're looking for a mindless pattern to whip up while you're watching TV, you've found it.

I'm loving this pattern so much! I'm picking the colors randomly from my stash. My only "rule" is that when I do one color, the next color must contrast to the previous one. I think it really gives the colors definition. I'm using Red Heart Super Saver for most of it, but I'm also throwing in a few colors of Micheals "Impeccable" by Loops and Threads.
Want to make your own? Here's the Pattern!
Have a wonderful day!

Round Ripple~All finished!

Hey Everyone!
Remember when I mentioned the round ripple I was testing a few posts ago? Well, it's all done! And I have to say--It looks gorgeous!
Oh how pretty!

And here it is all folded up--love it!

It's made out of Red Heart Super Saver for the colors and Caron One Pound for the white. When I was at Wal-Mart picking out colors, this brown caught my eye. This picture doesn't do it justice! It almost looks like a creamy mocha color. Maybe it's a new color or maybe it's just me but it's lovely!

And here it is draped over a chair in my living room. This picture shows just how huge this blanket is!
One last pic:

Looks like someone else loves this blanket as well! :)
Have a great day!
