I decided to do blues, with navy being the dominant color. Here it is:
This is another pattern from the 200 Ripple Stitch Patterns book, number 148 called Waterfall. Nice pattern with no errors. Unfortunately, I did a gauge swatch using one of the blues, instead of the navy. The navy is thinner, and I am finding whatever yarn you use to start really sets the size tone for the whole project. I was trying for 45 inches wide, and it is 51. Ooooooooops. That means I should order another ball of the navy. That might be tricky, because I purchased it back in July. I have an email into KnitPicks to see if they still have that lot number. I may need to call tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Peace,

I really love the different shades of blue. Looks good with the navy.
Very interesting and beautiful design. (I have to get me a copy of that book.)
I really like the colors you chose and the pattern too. I'm doing the soft wave pattern right now but will look at your pattern in my copy of the book - if it is easy enough I'd like to use it for my next one.
Thanks for the inspiration!
It is a pretty easy pattern, easy to memorize and no errors so that is a big plus. The one open lacy row is very easy to do too. Thanks for the great compliments (everyone).
