stepping waves afghan

Looks wonderful. I started mine last night.

Looking forward to seeing the colors you chose. Have fun.

I started on Saturday and *Thought* I was doing okay. But somehow I have ended up with extra stitches!!! I just went through this whole thread and saw the tip about using the stitch markers so I am going to frog what I have done and re start.

I am using Mauve Glow, Fresh Flower and Princess. I can only work on it at night when DD has gone to bed. I have a couple of Crochet projects on the go to keep me busy in the mean time

I have said it before and I will say it again.

I love Waverly!! I just ripped out my afghan to the border and 1st 3 rows. It was so easy to pick up the stitches. Didn't drop a stitch at all. I love that I don't have to redo these 7 rows. Can't wait til tonight to get back into this afghan.

I love Waverly too! What a great yarn! I think you will have much better luck with your afghan when you put the stitch markers in between repeats. I know I did. Happy knitting!

The stitch markers are great. In the past, I would get to the end of the row and realize that I made a mistake somewhere. It would get frustrating. I used to say that my signature on the piece was the mistakes. Now, I know exactly where I made a mistake and can fix it immediately. My stepping waves afghan turned out to be one of my best. Good luck with yours. Please post pictures.

The stitch makers are making such a difference. I am counting at the end of each stitch pattern repeat and am able to quickly see where I added or forgot a YO. I am onto the 3rd colour. It is a rainy day here so I might make my DD play upstairs so that I can work on it. I will try to post a picture in the next few days

Here is what I have done so far. Once you get the rhythm it is a fair easy afghan. I am enjoying it.

I am not confident about the colours but I know my dd (7yrs old) will love it

Looking good. I agree about the rhythm. Once I got going, it was easy. And, I do like the colors. They pop.

I think those colors look sweet together. Reminds me of candy!

I am almost at the halfway point!
