Excellent verbal and visual instruction. Very clear for a beginner. She does not assume prior knowledge of decrease and increase and gives helpful tips along the way. I will definitely use this pattern in ocean and sky blues for my new grandchild.

You’re an excellent instructor. You not only show the way to make stitches, you explain your reasons behind your method. Thanks also for offering very good tips! I’ve been crocheting for years and have learned a LOT from you! ❤️ Hugsss ❤️

[@suestutzle2779]

This is it!!! I have not been able to master ripple stitch but this I can do! Thank you, thank you. I go to a craft group where we crochet for charity. I like to do something different to the usual granny stitch that is done but as you can imagine there is a lot of chatter going on while we are crocheting. I need things that are not complicated yet look nice, that are easy for me to do while chatting. This one is really good. I love it.

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Yes, I know what you mean … you need something a little mindless to keep up with the fun conversations. I wish there was a craft group near me, that sounds like a lot of fun 😀💕

This has quickly become one of my favorite stitches 🤩. It's so easy to memorize but looks complicated.

If you've haven't tried this one yet, you must! 😍

[@ruthiebabe3638]

This is a nice pattern, thank you.😊 There are so many variations of the ripple stitch! I am currently working on a wide scarf/ wrap in a ripple stitch using variagated yarn and it shows off the colours beautifully. The pattern I am working on uses half double crochet stitches which automatically gives you a ridge without working in the back loop only. The pattern I am using skips two stitches in the dip. The only thing I don't like is that because of the way a half double crochet stitch is formed the gaps in the dip do not look symmetrical, and I like symetry! 😁 If I do another ripple stitch I would do one more like your pattern. It looks nicer.😊

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I like the idea of the hdc creating the ridge effect . I’ll have to look at trying this one too 🧶💕

Im making a scrap yarn blanket with this pattern, and I started it in a different way that gives me a straight edge that will be easy to work into when I make a border. I started with 144 foundation double crochet stitches, then turned and made a stacked single crochet as my first double crochet stitch of the row. Then I followed this repeat: 2 double crochet, 3 half double crochet, 2 single crochet, 3 half double crochet, 2 double crochet. After that I followed the pattern as it is, exept I started my rows with a stacked single crochet instead of a chain.

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I agree with others who commented about a print version request. I think you could take the transcript and turn into a PDF and post the link in your video or put it in Ravelry for sale.

Just my take. Have a great day!

Hi Roz!! I love this video!! I’ve been watching tons of ripple blanket videos for the last couple of days, trying to find someone who speaks very clearly, explains it very clearly, has a great camera in focus, the right color yarn that you’re using to teach with, etc., and yours is by far the best!!! I’m getting ready to start my very first crochet blanket project using your video and pattern!😱 I just want to point out, I really like those stitch markers that you are using in this video! They seem like they would be easier to insert and to remove with just one hand, and without it getting stuck. I hate the two types of markers I have! Can you possibly tell me where I can find the type you use? I’ve looked through Amazon a bit, and I don’t see anything like those. What gives?😉😁 Btw….what a fantastic suggestion to use the markers in both of the ways you mentioned….in the base chain stitches, and for marking the peaks & valleys. That should keep me from missing or losing a stitch!

[@PlayHookywithMe]

So glad you found the video useful, it’s a fun one! 👏🏻 Unfortunately, the only place I’ve found them is at Michaels . They are called “the crochet dude” stitch markers.

My question is about yarn..I’ve made a few afghans using dk weight acrylic yarn, and while I love the weight and ease in crocheting, I hate the pilling. Do you think cotton yarn would be better in that regard? Thank you for all your awesome videos…you have been responsible for so many projects in my household!!😂😂

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I’m so happy that you’ve enjoyed the videos, thank you for telling me! That’s a great question on the yarn. I have to admit that I’m using the cotton because they work so well for the videos but I haven’t completed a full blanket with this yarn to give you an objective answer 😕 The closest I have used and washed is a yarn that is a blend of cotton with nylon (créme cotton by loops & threads) and I haven’t experienced any pilling. I’ve heard great things about the anti pilling yarn by Premier Yarns . I’m not sure it comes in a dk weight but I’d recommend giving it a try. I plan on it as well. 👍🏻💕

One comment, I normally use a larger hook , a 5.75 J hook, using I Love This Yarn #4 worsted weight yarn because I tend to crochet tighter . One question, what do you think about alternating between the two rows of color using front loop, then using the back loop for the next row? Thanks so very much for your input.

I have been thinking of moving up to a 5 lately but I keep reverting back to 4mm. 😅 I wish I could give you a good answer on the changing of loops but I haven’t tried it before.

I would recommend that you chain up to the 36 inches using the multiple as your guide to get close to that width. I can’t give you a specific number because I don’t know the hook and yarn size you’re using. That will make a difference to the count as well as your tension 💕

This one doesn’t shrink very much much what you can do is work a few multiples , measure the chain , work row 1 and then measure again. Compare the 2 measurements and decide how many additional chains you need to make. It would also be handy to measure how long one multiple of 12 is. 💕

hi, do you think the pattern will show if i only use one color?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Absolutely! You have the ridge from working in the back loop so it will help define that shape when you’re working with one color 👍🏻💕

Thanks for the clear instructions on this pattern. How much width do you lose from the foundation row with this pattern. I want to make a blanket 30 inches wide so how wide should my foundation row be?

Hi Heather , I actually didn’t notice much of a change in the width, surprisingly. For example , I did a small test and the initial chain measured 6 in . After row 1 , it reduced to 5.5 in . By row 2 , it bounced back to 6 in. 😅💁🏼‍♀️ I’d recommend trying on a test swatch with your yarn but I think you’ll be fine 👍🏻🧶
