Ripple Cushion 2

Hello Everyone,

Its Ripply time again.. And here is my second ripple cushion. this time i didnt have to stuff anything and just bought  a nice coverless cushion and crocheted this ripple cover for it...

I had lots and lots of yarn in my staff remained from all other projects..  Here is the look of the small balls of left out yarns of different colors.. When i was thinking for what to do with them, came to mind was a yarn bag.. so just started of to make a rectangle with all the left outs and each color hardly was sufficient for two rows.

And thats my ripple rectangle with a mix of all colors..

With Lucy's technique i made the ripples to a smooth finish and form a neat rectangle.. i thought of  joining  them and attach handles and also make a oval/rectangle base to form a bag.. but i was not happy with this idea and the colors too didnt satisfy me..After all it was made of just left outs.

I joined the two  ends of the rectangle only at the edges and kept some buttons and loops  in between to make the cover removable from the cushion so that i can wash it now and then.

 

After sliding the cover in the cushion just crocheted the ends joining them together with a hot pink and as usual gave a nice shell edging too...:)

Thats the end product.. Im really happy with it.. especially because my left outs didnt go waste and made a warm cushion... And the other one is my first Rippe Cushion i made a couple of weeks back..

Made some thread shopping this week and loaded my stash.. will show then in next post.. :)

So i will be busy with the new threads making some doilies.. Long time i have an eye on the beautiful rose doily made by some of other crochet friends.. Wish i get some more time daily to make them.. :)

Have a happy hooking time... will keep visiting your pages in my little free time.

With Love

Ripple Cushion!!!

Hello Ladies!!!!

 

Hope all are doing great!! Past couple of days i have been visiting many amazing blogs and had saved some wonderful patterns in queue..i wish i could dedicate more time to crochet.. :(

 

And thanks to some wonderful people who stopped by and became my new followers...

 

I had some old yarn lying in my stash for a long time and finally it was the day to give them life in the form of beautiful ripples.. I have made a small ripple BLANKET in the past but the pattern is somewhat different and the ripples had a sharp edge and not wavy.. But this one is nice and wavy and who else can explain it well other than LUCY... just followed her and got my cute lovely ripples  in three colors.. candy pink, aqua green and navy blue..
 

 

I had very limited yarn of these colors that is really less for a small blanket or throw.. so then i decided to make a cushion.. also i had some left out fiber fill after making the PUFFY CROCHET HEART .

 

Here is the completed cushion cover sewed and also gave my usual touch of beautiful shell edges.. i just love 'em.. shells add beauty to watever we make...

 

 

I stuffed the fiber fill in a normal white cloth and then covered it with my ripple cover.. I also attached some snap fasteners at the back..

 

 

 

Hmmmm.. and now my old cushions have got a colorful new friend..

 

 

 

Got some plans of shopping yarn this week... Wish hubby dear is free to take me out and be patient with me to choose some nice colors.. :P

 

Feel like days are passing very fast this year.. Its only less than 10 days for the end of second month and summer is about to begin.. im happy atleast im in Bangalore.. Pity my parents in Chennai.. Know what...Chennai has only three seasons.. hot.. hotter and hottest... :)

 

Last week i was chatting with my new friend and when sharing each other's interest i mentioned about my love for Gujarati food..  i felt like eating them since then.. And yes.. prepared this soft puffy KAMAN DHOKLA .. Hot dhoklas with green chutney.. nothing else could replace them on a late evening.

 

 

And thats it for now.. till then take care.. happy hooking and love to see your posts..

 

With Love,

Pavi
