This is not your Granny’s ripple stitch. In fact, it’s not a ripple stitch at all! This little rebel is worked in straight rows and uses granny stitch and popcorn stitches to give you a rippled effect without the increases or decreases of traditional ripple afghans.

Complete crochet charts are included and can be used on their own or as a helpful tool with the written pattern.

Instructions for 3 different sizes - Baby, Kid, and Adult Throw - are included in the pattern. Pattern is also very easy to customize to meet your own size requirements - you can increase and decrease both width and height in increments of about 10 inches (25.5cm).

Pattern is also available on Etsy. Click the “visit pattern website” link above to buy it there.
