Affiliate links above 👆🏻 Colors: Med 4 weight (324 yards in each skein) (1) Pastel Pink (1) Rose Sands (1)Cream (1)Oceans Celadon (1)Deep Celadon (1) Ice Blue It looks like I'm going to need 6 skeins (in total) to complete this. To determine my yardage, I worked up one complete ripple (2 rows) in the length I want my blanket. Then, I pulled it apart and measured the yardage. I divided that into the yardage of one skein and determined I would need 5 skeins. I decided to get 6 to take into account the tails, mistakes and border. 🧶 Pattern: Foundation Row: Ch multiple of 17 + 3. Row 1: Dc in 5th ch from hook, dc in each ch across. Ch 3, turn. Row 2 (Ripple Setup): – Half peak: 2 dc in same st as ch-3, then 2 dc in next st twice more (6 dc total). – Valley: sk 1 st, dc in next st; repeat 5 times (5 dc total). – Peak: sk 1 st, 2 dc in each of next 6 sts (12 dc total). – Repeat valley + peak sequence across. – End with half peak: sk 1 st, 2 dc in next 2 sts, then 2 dc in final st (6 dc total). Ch 3 (or stacked sc), turn. Row 3: Dc in each st across. Ch 3, turn. Rows 4 and Beyond: Repeat Row 2 (ripple row), then Row 3 (straight dc row). Continue alternating until blanket reaches desired length. Join me on Instagram ! @playhookywithme
