I love the color selection. I am also using other brands of acrylic like Loops and Threads Impeccables. I don't like Red Heart Super Saver...it's so squeaky and scratchy. It's up to you. I would recommend checking out each brand and see what feels good to you. <br />The reason I am using acrylic is for the cost. I am making this one for about 40.00 which is pretty awesome. I think I'm using about 14 or 15 colors and more than one skein for certain colors. <br /><br />If you choose to use nicer yarn, the cost of materials could double or triple. <br />I am working on mine very slowly, because I keep getting orders that have to go out first.<br /><br />Let me know if I can help you,<br />LizLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15374186707052290112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927037107770418427.post-10770964522454333992012-03-14T15:39:43.606-07:002012-03-14T15:39:43.606-07:00thanks so much:Dthanks so much:DLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15374186707052290112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927037107770418427.post-26723539432760051892012-03-13T23:57:20.898-07:002012-03-13T23:57:20.898-07:00I am so eager to start making ripple blanket!

I started with 4 rows of the first color, then 2 rows of the next, 4 rows, then 2 rows. I think Lucy's Neat Ripple Pattern and a lot of other ripples you see use the 2 row sequence throughout. I thought I would change it up. I was following the Royal Sisters version, but for my next one I will do the 2 row sequence. <br />Thanks so much,<br />LizLizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15374186707052290112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-927037107770418427.post-69189467277136970602012-02-29T05:36:29.404-08:002012-02-29T05:36:29.404-08:00Thanks:D When you finished yours, it motivated me ...Thanks:D When you finished yours, it motivated me to get going again.
