Granny crochet is one of the most classic and loved crochet patterns. The granny ripple is a variation of that all-time favorite, where instead of straight lines and diagonals you produce a wave or zig-zag design, with the line tending towards a wave or zig-zag depending on the crispness of the peaks and troughs. Give your traditional granny crochet a new flair.
Granny Ripple Blanket Free Crochet Pattern
The Granny Ripple blanket is a wonderful example o how granny crochet interacts with multiple colors to form a design that looks a lot more intricate than it actually is. Moreover, in true granny fashion, the separate color bands mean that uou won’t bust the bank with a big purchase of a single color of yarn, and can use shorter lengths you may have lying around.
