Sideways Ripple



I started this out for my daughter's twin size bed and did the old "eyeball it" measurement. Bad plan. It was about 4" too narrow. I decided to add a sideways ripple to make it wide enough.



I got 2 skeins of each of the 8 colors of Lion Brand Wool-Ease and I have enough left over to make a baby doll ripple for her doll cradle. :-)

Wow! I love your ripple! How did you add the ripples to the sides? I have one that I am working on that shrunk alot and was trying to figure out how to add to the sides. Thanks for inspiring me to give it a try.

I especially like the colors you chose, and I think the side ripples turned out great too.

Looks great. The side ripple adds alot of detail to it.
