And yet. And yet...I still have four separate stashes of yarn. Granted, most of it is not the right size for the ripple, and a bunch of it is actually meant for weaving, but seriously, I had no idea that I had this much stuff left over.

The end came into view all too soon
I have finished my ripple. It is now big enough to cover my entire queen-size bed. The only bit of planning that went into it is that the first and last stripes are the same color. And just in time for the temps to reach into the mid-80s here in DC!

A great job on a big project. Are you going to take a vacation from crochet for awhile or dive into another project right away?
Shesh what a loon I am! You have so many things to do and all very beautiful too.
Can I ask the particulars?
What size needle did you use, how many chains, what weight did you use, Worsted, DK, acombination. It looks wonderful. I'm still working out the details for mine. I was going to use stash but I don't have alot of one gauge or content.
Stephanie:
I used a G hook, I believe it was around 303 chain stitches, and mostly worsted weight yarn. The bulk of it was Red Heart.
Susan:
Thanks! I feel a little bereft, but yes, I have plenty to keep me busy. :-)
I love your blanket! It's gorgeous! I love the dark colors!
You could always make a small ripple, not necessarily a blanket... like some washcloths... some tote bags... some socks...
Congratulations! It's beautiful :-)
Your blanket is gorgeous!
What Ripple pattern did you use? I want to make a Queen size ripple but I'm not sure what pattern to use to get a good sized blanket.
