Howdy Ripplers!
In the name of the almighty family vacation, I head off to parts warmer than Minnesota today. That means things from my end are going to be a tad slow. I will make note of that in the sidebar, asking anyone that needs something to leave a comment with their email address. I won't be able to get my home email while I'm frolicking in the south, but will be able to hopefully pop into the blog a few times.
So. That's that.
But I have an idea.
I was popping about some blogs like I haven't had the chance to since all this ripplyness started. And guess what? Ripples are EVERYWHERE. Really. There are stories all over of crafters picking up the hooks and kicking back with the ripples. My heart went pitter pat, as it usually does, when I clicked into the Yarn Pirate's blog to oggle me some yarn...and found her rippling!!! **GASP** Turns out she crocheted as a child and all the ripply goodness has brought her back to it now. HOW FUN IS THAT?!?!?!
FUN.
And it got me thinking. And sometimes that's good, and sometimes that's bad, but hey I think this is one of the former. What say you to a RIPPLE TREASURE HUNT? Venture out to find the ripple, wherever it might be living on the web. And bring your treasures back here to share with all. Label your posts with "treasure hunt" pretty please, and most likely toss that into the title somehow too. Don't go stealing pictures now, but give us links to blogs or Flickrs or whatever. THIS IS GOING TO BE SO FUN!!!
And one more request from the ether...when you give updates about your projects, can you include your yarn choices and hook/needle sizes? Inquiring ripplers want to know!
So, I'm off my dears. Will check in when I can. Happy Rippling!

I also have been marveling at the ripple blankets seemingly everywhere I look. I knew I wanted to make one when I saw Jane's on New Year's Day and then got started when I saw Alicia's in February. It's fun to see I wasn't alone and to witness the power of blogs.
Read an amusing posting last night from Nona (of "Nonaknits"). I will supply the link for those who aren't familiar with her blog -- hope it works!

OK, it doesn't work, but at least you have the address.
rae...i was waiting to not spoil the surprise, but GUESS WHO ASKED FOR AN INVITE!?!?!?! Yep, it be Nona. Hope she'll land here soon, she's just a gas!
