  • That sounds like a real bargain Isis Black. I'm still amazed at the price of wool in NZ, given that there are more sheep than people!

    At last my Ripple Blanket is finished!!!!! I first started this in February, then after doing about 50cms, I didn't like the colour pattern so ripped it all out:eek:

    Anyway, here it is, all finished. I think I probably need to block the first and last rows at some point but will do that after my holiday.

    I'm glad it's finished, it really had become a bit of a chore to be honest, but I am pleased with it. It is quite big, about single bed size.

    I don't believe in the concept of hell, but if I did I would think of it as filled with people who were cruel to animals.
