I loved Lucy Attic24’s Neat Ripple Pattern so much that I’ve started my third ripple. The first one, Cotton Candy, I gave to my niece for her birthday. The 2nd one I’m working on, Easter Basket, will be a gift my my other niece’s baby due in May. This one, Spring Time, is for me! I’m using the same left over yarn colors that I used in Cotton Candy but in a different color order.

I had a request for a description of my border edging. I’m new to writing out directions (sorry if not clear) but this is pretty close to what I did. You can look at the photo to see the border and corners for reference.

The edging:

Note: For some reason the asterisk key smbol will not print out on this note so I substituted the word “asterisk” for the asterisk key symbol.
