Ripple Baby Blanket

I just made this blanket for one of the members of my Church pilgrim Fellowship group from back in the late 1980’s.  The kids have all remained friends and I still keep in contact with most of them.  This young lady lives in Georgia now.

This blanket is easy to make.  The trick is you have to count.  I used Pink, blue, yellow, green, white and multicolored yarns.

Chain 180 stitches with white.  Turn and single crochet one stitch in each of the next nine chains.  Single crochet 3 stitches in the next chain.  single crochet one stitch in each of the next 9 chains.  Skip 2 chains and Single crochet one stitch into each of the next 9 chains.  Repeat this pattern to the end.

Turn and repeat starting from one stitch from the needle.  You should always have nine stitches between the peaks and valleys.

I made each color 6 rows and then 3 rows of white between the colors to delineate the colors a bit.
