This time of year brings a feeling much like turning a new page with blank spaces to fill. Therefore, inspiration has presently taken hold in a new project, a ripple afghan to crochet. The art of crocheting is being revisited and I am once again drawn into its soothing rhythmic pleasures during these shorter daylight hours.
The afternoon was warm and sunny on the day I sat outside , enjoying the warmth, to plan the color arrangement the yarns would take in this afghan.
Of course, the project travels well, and so I knitted during a recent visit to Rose's house. How well the colors coordinated with my dress that day. That could be a good sign. Right?
After an initial intention of having a consistent color pattern for the afghan, I decided to place the seven colors randomly. The colors I chose have no definite rhyme or reason for being crocheted into this afghan, just happy colors and happy thoughts of being snuggled under its happiness on chilly days.
Colors and moments rippling together, I like that.
