Materials Needed

• Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in 5 colors (deep ocean blue, seafoam green, sandy beige, coral pink, sunlit yellow)
• Crochet Hook: 5.5 mm crochet hook
• Gauge: 14 stitches and 10 rows = 4 inches in ripple pattern

Step-by-Step Instructions

Foundation Row

1. Start by making a slip knot and chaining 171. This number can be adjusted to a multiple of 14 plus 3 for your desired width.

Row 1

1. In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc).
2. Make 3 more dc in the next 3 chains.
3. Now, repeat the following pattern across the row:
• Make a dc2tog (double crochet two together) over the next 2 chains.
• Make another dc2tog over the next 2 chains.
• Make 3 dc in the next 3 chains.
• Make 2 dc in the next chain.
• Make 2 dc in the following chain.
• Make 3 dc in the next 3 chains.
4. Continue this pattern until you reach the end of the row, then turn your work.

Row 2

1. Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc).
2. In the next 3 dc, make a dc in each.
3. Repeat the following pattern across the row:
• Make a dc2tog over the next 2 dc.
• Make another dc2tog over the next 2 dc.
• Make 3 dc in the next 3 dc.
• Make 2 dc in the next dc.
• Make 2 dc in the following dc.
• Make 3 dc in the next 3 dc.
4. Continue this pattern until you reach the end of the row, then turn your work.

Continuing the Blanket

1. Repeat Row 2 until your blanket reaches your desired length. A good rule of thumb is to change colors every 10 rows, but feel free to mix it up as desired.

Finishing Up

1. Once your blanket is the desired length, fasten off your yarn.
2. Weave in all loose ends using a yarn needle to ensure a neat finish.
