Rainbow ripple blanket + Spring ripple banket

Post by poppy »

I learned to crochet thanks to the internet and ended up crocheting this rainbow blanket for our king size bed.
It cheers me up on dark grey days :D

I am now making a less loud one in pastel colours.

Certainly colourful Helene and I am sure it is warm and cosy too. What colours are you using for the current one?

Thank you for your kind comments. :D

This is my current one, softer Spring colours. It will be for a double bed. A row takes me 10 minutes to crochet!

Both blankets are beautiful. :love:
It must be so much fun working on them with all those colours, although handling them might be a bit frustrating at times, I guess.
