Baby Ripple Blanket

Ahhh! This makes me jump up and down with excitement! I fell in love with these colors, and I couldn't wait to turn it into a glorious ripple blanket. This blanket is much smaller than my other ripple. This is for a baby! A beautiful baby. Who just happens to be my niece and goddaughter. My sister-in-law loves all things bright and colorful, so I just knew this would be the perfect blanket for her Baby B. There will be 11 colors total. I am still waiting on a light blue color that has been on backorder. All 11 colors have been chosen quite randomly and without thought. I'm just picking colors as I go. The more I go, the more I love! This pattern, again, is compliments of Lucy at Attic24 and you can find her finished Baby Ripple here and her tutorial pattern here. (Just go ahead and click on those links.) This pattern is fairly easy. Once you get the swing of things, it's a breeze! And you just enjoy yourself while rippling away! Ohhh, I can't wait to show you the final product!

Hexagon Blanket

I've been working on a few different crochet items right now. I have two ripple blankets in the making, and now my wonderful hexagon blanket! I had to put a temporary hold on my two ripple blankets due to a yarn shortage, and I'm patiently waiting for more yarn to arrive in the mail. It's become a nightly routine for me, this whole crochet thing. Normally the Honey and I get into bed, we put on a good movie or a TV show, and I crochet away until my eyes won't stay open any longer. So, I just had to crochet something when I couldn't work on my ripple blankets! I am so-so-so excited about this blanket! I've been eye balling it for sometime now, and I finally just sat down and carefully learned the pattern, hook and yarn in hand! This pattern is compliments of Lucy from Attic24. Please go check out her blog, it's fabulous! And her lovely Hexagon Tutorial is here. (Just click on that link.) I hope you enjoy this blanket as much as I do, and I will be posting pictures and writing about my progress throughout this Hexagon journey!
