Been playing with a few ripples and waves over the weekend instead of finishing my Moss stitch cushions......
Repinned a pattern on PINTREST
I Love crochet diagrams so much easier to follow than reading written patterns, you can see it all in one look, except of course if you miss read it because you haven't got your glasses on but I realise quite quickly I had made a mistake....oops!
Love the pattern but getting the right hook size so the crochet isn't hard and the right yarn to ripple can take a bit of time, not right yet and once you get going the pattern isn't as complicated as it looks
love the pattern,
love the colour,
love the variegated yarn....
but the hook size isn't right yet. This JAMES C BRETT Marble DK has never felt hard before but it does with this sample so I will try a 5mm hook instead of a 4mm, see if it softens up a bit.
Treated myself to a few colours of 100% Cashmere from COLOURMART on monday, probably the most expensive yarn I have ever used and if I am very honest it is like old rope to work with (oiled yarns), I have string softer lol.......but I had already made and washed a
granny square and WOW! it is so soft and beautiful after washing.
A Before and after picture tomorrow of the Ripple Button Cowl
Moss stitch cushions to finish
have fun x
