I think this is going to be a granny zig-zag not a granny ripple.
The wools are all 'new to me' but unwanted by others and are different textures and weights - rather an odd combination of colours but I copied was inspired by this creation.

The pattern is by Elizabeth Ham and instructions can be found on a video here with written instructions here. If you Google 'granny ripple' there are lots of different patterns that can be made using different coloured stripes. I liked the little white flower stripe that was made in this particular ripple.
This one is lovely aswell.
A BIG welcome to my new followers and thank you for your suggestions on what to do with my BIG crochet hook!
I love this idea Mum... There's another thing to add to my "To-Do" list (if I can find it LOL).
ReplyDeleteIt's looking good already. I love the colours.

ReplyDeletehey mum,
ReplyDeletethanks for commenting on my blog. Do you mind if I add you to my list? Love your blog.
Yesterday I went to a craft shop and saw for myself the biggest crochet hook. I was a massive wodden one. They run craft evenings once a week which I'm going to start going to .... I will be sure to ask them what to do ... and may even purchase one myself.
Love the colors in your new ripple blanket!!
