I just caught up on invites...gulp, I think so, truly I do! We've got 116 active members and another 30ish in the wings. What fun! With so many of us, please remember to put your name or handle in the label field of your posts so we can stalk project progress.
Am bracing myself to frog the round ripple this evening and restart. Need to pick up the big blanket again now that I've come to terms with NOT being random. That will mean buying more yarn of course...shhhhhhhhhhhhhh. No reason the hubby needs to know, right? Also have plans for a felted ripple bag bouncing about my head...lurking Lamb's Pride is begging to join in the fun. Not quite sure why, as I have yet to actually finish anything...but that's what starting a new project is for, right? Let's hear it for procrastination!
As I have no yarny ripple progress to share, thought I'd give you a peek of the "soft waves" I was dealing with last week....
Indian Rocks Beach just outside of Tampa...just loverly, yes? Now there's a thought...mutating those colors and proportions into a beach blanket....oh good yarn gods, somebody stop me!

Oh my god, that's such a good idea!!! I'm going home to look at my photos to see if i have anything that would work. If not, i'll be making a trip to the beach this weekend for some photos.
Can I join too?

I love the idea of using a beach (or other landscape) to base ripples on. My mum did something similar weaving a rug for my room when I was little (mind you, that rug is still on the loom about 25 years later...).
