Notes

I’ve designed a 2nd ripple featuring ten rows of Vanna’s ‘Rust’. (The first was #44, A Touch of Brass.)

The rather fuzzy anonymous variegated of grey, tan and off-white is very subtle, so I included fourteen rows of it. Red Heart Soft ‘ Light Wheat’ matches the tan very well! I love when that sort of thing happens – don’t you? – not that I wouldn’t have happily used some other tan yarn.

I have a whole ‘nother pound of the variegated to play with! I’d like to see how it looks combined with lots of black.

As usual I modified the Rustic Ripple pattern - used an H hook with only one strand of yarn and increased each run of double crochet stitches to ten stitches.
