ripples,

well, I had to frog the ripple #1 . Turns out my gauge was slowly relaxing as I worked on it. I didn't notice untill I liad it out flat ,so I could measure it. It would have been a lovely rainbow shape if I had kept going. My chain row or first row of crochet was super tight because I was struggling to get it right when I first started but then as I became more comfortable It became loose and relaxed. Not a good thing for a blanket. So I took it apart. It's so sad how quickly you can take apart something that took so long to make. I restarted it this morning.
