This beautifully cosy afghan is a great beginners pattern.
The ripple effect is easily created, and relies on pattern repeats. The colour changes create a beautiful look that will add to the home decor value of any home.

The recommended yarn is Stylecraft Special DK, and 2 x 100g balls are required of each of the 3 colours used.
A 4mm hook is used to create the blanket.

The yarn quantities stated in the pattern are for a single size, although instructions are given on how to increase or decrease the pattern width.
