new ripple

I finally finished another baby ripple, this one in yellow, green, and white. Actually, it's been finished for a little while now. I have a knit ripple started in blue, green, and white that should eventually become another baby blanket, and i have become fascinated with thread crochet for some reason. I have a strange desire to make molly a thread crochet bedspread. I even found the pattern i want to use, but i can't get it to work. http://www.angelfire.com/folk/celtwich/Queenscrown.html It will make such a pretty princess bedspread! But everything keeps scrunching up and it gets all wobbly. I thought at first that it was my tension being off, so i'm trying it with yarn, but getting the same thing. :( I'm going to make to fit a toddler size bed before i try making a larger one in a different pattern for when she's older. I just want her to have something heirloom quality to pass down through the family. I've always loved that idea, but there isn't anything like it in my family now. Chris has a baby quilt that was made for him as a baby, and molly's used it a couple times, but he freaks out about it getting messed up. As soon as i get batteries for my camera I will post pics of the WIPs.
