I so enjoy when the time comes that I can show that I actually do crochet. Quite a lot, really. I'm just ADD and rarely finish projects unless they're for publication. I enjoyed crocheting this one immensely; I made it back in December. It was the first time I picked up a yarn and it told me exactly what it wanted to be. Very little input was needed from my own brain.
I designed this as my staff project for the spring 2007 Interweave Crochet [4]. I fell in love with the ribbed ripples, having no idea they'd become so popular this season or that I'd continue rippling [5] for months.
In the preview photo on the magazine's website [6] you can't see the dangly rings, so here they are.
