I think it is quicker than a ripple (or maybe I just didn't get the hang of it)! I don't need to concentrate as the whole row is the same, no counting required! @clothmama
Lucky little man It was initially based on Attic24's granny stripe blanket http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/granny-stripe.html , but actually I enjoyed just randomly striping it. There are granny rows in there, some doubles, some trebles, and then the other rows are just rows of single, double, triple of quandruples. I was going to learn some new stiches for it, but got too far in while we were away to want to add something new.
