Posted on June 24, 2013 by Linda @ alottastitches

Posted on June 19, 2013 by Linda @ alottastitches

I figured being able to play with three ounces each of pretty rainbow variegated and bright rose would help me use up another six ounces of that yellow yarn in last week’s baby ripple, Red Heart Soft Baby, ‘Powder Yellow’. … Continue reading →

Posted on June 10, 2013 by Linda @ alottastitches

My dear husband wanted to call this Round Baby Ripple ‘Buttercups’ even though buttercups are actually a Very Bright YELLOW, so I tacked on the words ‘Baby Yellow’. I figure a plant hybridizer somewhere in the world must have come … Continue reading →

Posted on May 13, 2013 by Linda @ alottastitches

2013 #16 – My First Round Baby Ripple

Posted on April 26, 2013 by Linda @ alottastitches

I’ve been working fast and furious on Dylan’s Spiderman blanket. The Superhero Dreamcatcher Afghan pattern is very easy and I’m thrilled with how perfectly flat this round ripple is! Just a few more rounds of blue and I’ll be ready … Continue reading →
