Learning to Ripple
My stack of Lamb's Pride Worsted awaits myrippling. I am using it now for some other things that have inspired me, too, while I get better at crocheting. Have been INTENSELY inspired by Mason Dixon book
to begin a log cabin square, which I am working on and will post on my blog soon.
In the meantime, I am practicing learning to crochet-just doing lots of chain stitches and single crochets to try to get my wonky left had to hold the yarn correctly while I crochet with my right. For some reason (maybe because I am learning at a late age, it is hard for me to manipulate the yarn and get the tension, etc correct.
So I have Jan Eaton's Ripple book, and hope to begin soon! I love this blog and check it daily and am so inpsired by all the ripplers I see!

Oh my gosh! I thought I was a nerd...I've made three ripple afghans for my kids...and I have two in progress...other projects for now...my email address is emtrulove@aol.com...can I be a rippler too?
log cabin square.. is it crocheted? i want to see... share soon!
It is not crocheted- it is knitted. Look at http://masondixonkal.blogspot.com/ to see some examples.
I keep trying to edit my post to correct a couple of misspellings, and to put the yarn picture first and the Mason dixon picture 2nd and it is not working....so here it is like it is
Absolutely DIVINE colours! And I'm doing some log cabins for my next project too, so exciting! =)
