I love it! I’ve been trying to find a ripple pattern that was easier than making various types of knots in between – this only makes you learn/make one extra knot.
My grandmother made me a red/white/blue ripple when I was in elem. When I was in high school, I wanted her to make it larger – she lengthened it and made a larger boarder. Most of my Christmas day photos have me cuddled up with that one afghan. I still have the afghan – it’s about 27 years old. I am estatic!
Thanks so much
i went for the tie, knot, sew, on my loose ends. it’s working pretty well and you can’t tell i did it. i will take a picture when i am done and send it via Facebook. again thanks a million for the pattern i’m having so much fun! and for a beginner it makes me feel good that my squares are now taking the shape of actual things!
That means the decreases are not being done on the sides if it is getting wider. I do have symbol instructions posted on my crochet blog which may be helpful for you to see the exact stitch placement. To the right or lower right of the video you will see “MORE INFO”. Click on that to expand the box and you will find the link.
yay! i finally found a cool pattern for a scarf, i want to ask you for advice. how do i make the color change not so obvious in the ends? i also learned color change from you thanx!!!
i tried doing this with two colors, and after about 20 rows or so, i noticed the sides of the blanket were becoming wider, sort of like a trapezoid. i ripped it out and tried again but still ended up with a trapezoid looking shape to what i intended to be a baby blanket. i wonder where i went wrong?

I finally did it!!. This is how pathetic I am. It’s Saturday night, My wife and I are home. I’m crocheting and reasonably happy. The Mets are losing to the stupid Phillies.

You are welcome.
thank you for making this video, it was very usefull.
many thanks from norway
If you are making a practice swatch, yes. You add 12 chains for each ripple you want to make.
I cant believe what i wrote didn’t post….I was asking about The multiple is 12 + 6. does that mean i will make 18 chains?
How?
Please Help
You are welcome.
This is so much more logical than the pattern I have, thank you again!
It is great to hear that it is working for you.

A ripple will not look right with a border. You can do a simple little edging if you needed to cover up sides.
I’m also lost here and the symbol chart doesn’t seem to help me figure it out either.
this is true, was just wondering if there was a way that they could be solid colors with no border
How the the color changes obvious? You can always do a single crochet edging over the edges, alternating colors each time you get to the color change.

on the second row when you are decending do you skip two and go into three or skip one and go into two? that is where i am lost.
I appreciate the comment. Happy crocheting.
you’re the best! I’ve made basically all of your patterns! they are all the best and yet so easy!
I am glad you got it. Saturday nights at home are fun.
