Cre­at­ing a cro­chet rip­ple stitch afghan blan­ket is a fan­tas­tic project that allows you to exper­i­ment with dif­fer­ent col­ors and pat­terns. Rip­ple afghans, also known as chevron stitch blan­kets, are pop­u­lar cro­chet projects, and they can be made in var­i­ous col­or pat­terns and sizes. Whether you’re a sea­soned cro­cheter or just start­ing, you can fol­low a writ­ten pat­tern, pho­to tuto­r­i­al, or even a video tuto­r­i­al to get the hang of the rip­ple pat­tern.

Crochet a Ripple Stitch Afghan

To start your rip­ple afghan, you’ll typ­i­cal­ly begin with a foun­da­tion chain, fol­lowed by your first row of basic cro­chet stitch­es, often dou­ble cro­chet stitch­es. Then, you’ll con­tin­ue with col­or changes and the rip­ple effect by work­ing into the back loop of the pre­vi­ous row’s stitch­es. The rep­e­ti­tion of the pat­tern allows for a cozy blan­ket with a beau­ti­ful wave pat­tern.

This rip­ple stitch­es afghan blan­ket is stun­ning and ide­al for thought­ful gifts. I have includ­ed a detailed step-by-step video tuto­r­i­al to make it even more acces­si­ble.

One of the best parts about cro­chet rip­ple blan­kets is that they can be made dif­fer­ent­ly. You can use self-strip­ing yarn for quick baby blan­ket pat­terns, worsted weight yarn for a warm and cozy blan­ket, or even ounces of baby sport yarn to cre­ate a soft and del­i­cate afghan. The num­ber of stitch­es in your start­ing chain will deter­mine the size of your blan­ket.

The per­fect place to prac­tice your cro­chet rip­ple stitch pat­tern is with a free cro­chet pat­tern. These often come with affil­i­ate links for the yarn used, mak­ing gath­er­ing the mate­ri­als you need for your project eas­i­er. Cro­chet rip­ple blan­kets are also a great pat­tern for using acrylic yarn scraps and cre­at­ing beau­ti­ful col­or com­bi­na­tions.

With var­i­ous rip­ple stitch blan­ket pat­terns avail­able, you can choose the one that best suits your style. Whether it’s a mesa rip­ple blan­ket or anoth­er design, the rip­ple effect is a stun­ning way to incor­po­rate dif­fer­ent col­ors and cre­ate a unique piece of home decor. Once you get the hang of the rip­ple pat­tern, you may find that cro­chet­ing rip­ple afghans become your favorite thing to do with yarn and hooks.
