My Fiesta Baby Ripple

Here's my latest ripple using Red Heart Strata for the variegated colors and Red Heart solids for the others. I wound up having to use the solid colors because I couldn't find any Strata for sale at the time......of course, Murhpy's Law kicked in and when I was almost finished, I saw it at Mary Maxim's online (at least I think that was where I saw it). After running it through the washer and dryer it's as soft as a lamb and I'm very pleased with it as I know a little one will be snug and warm when covered with this ripple made with love. Let me know what you think.

It's wonderful and the stripe-solid-stripe pattern looks completely intentional and fantastic! I found RH Strata very straw-y when I used it but I have heard that it softens up nicely when washed.

this is just lovely

I've been doing big chunky knitting lately (then felting) -but this pretty fine work makes me itch to do something similar
