The Classic Ripple Crochet Pattern

BEGIN: Start by chaining a multiple of 17 (example 17, 34, 51, etc)

ROW 1: 1 double crochet in 4th chain from hook, 1 double crochet in next 5 chains. ( 1 double crochet, chain 2, 1 double crochet ) in next chain, 1 double crochet in next 7 chains, * Skip 2 chains, 1 double crochet in next 7 chains, ( 1 double crochet, chain 2, 1 double crochet ) in next chain, 1 double crochet in next 7 chains, repeat from * across until you reach the end, turn.

ROW 2 : Chain 3, skip 1st stitch, double crochet 2 together (see notes). 1 double crochet in next 5 stitches (1 double crochet, chain 2, 1 double crochet in the chain 2 space from the previous row)

ROW 2 CONTINUED: *1 double crochet in next 7 chains, skip 2 chains

ROW 2 CONTINUED: double crochet in the next 7 chains (1 double crochet, chain 2, 1 double crochet ) in next chain 2 space. Repeat from * across until last 8 stitches. 1 double crochet in next 5 stitches, double crochet 2 chains together (see notes) 1 double crochet in top of turning chain. Turn

• Repeat row 2 for the pattern

FINISHING: When you have reached the desired length of your blanket, you can fasten off the yarn and weave in the loose ends throughout with a yarn needle.
