This project is continuation of Blushing ripples in that it is a little baby boy version of it. I wanted to try the ripple stitch. There are a million versions of it and this one was pretty straight forward. It’s by Attic 24. The width of the blanket could be adjusted to you needs. I made one for a baby blanket. This is an experiment with Teal and grey. I think it worked out beautifully. The brightness of the teal and the laid-back grey. I am getting a hang of color co-ordination now. Will keep working on it.
This is a really gorgeous blanket/throw ideal for having your morning coffee with a Harry potter in your hand 😉 Bliss!!

I’ve tried the ripple stitch many times, but I always find that somehow I come out uneven. I count exactly as is requested from the directions, but I get lopsided results. Do you have any special tricks you do when using this stitch?
I had to count the stitches for the first ten rows for every ripple, to make sure they were right. I used 6 stitches between a turn. the seventh stitch had three dc in the same stitch.
It took a little while to get it right. and usually I am sure to make a mistake in between just to find out a lot later but this time it worked out okay.
Thank you very much for getting back to me. I am going to have to give it another go and see how it turns out.
I have been trying to settle on a boys blanket to make but so far can’t be convinced on any. Now I may have found the one. I really like the thickness of the stripes and the use of only three colours. Really nice. Well done.
Thank you so much!! So glad you liked it. I’d love to see the one you make, :)!!
Love that design!
Thank you.. so glad you liked it!
I have just discovered your blog and you won me over with the name alone! Love the blanket and am thinking I want to do a scarf in the ripple stitch now (just don’t have patience for a full blanket). Also really enjoy the Harry Potter book sitting there!!
Thank you so much!! I am glad you liked it. Ripple scarf sounds beautiful!
Beautiful color combination and perfect stitches. Welldone
Thanks a lot!! So glad you liked it!! 🙂
