Crochet Ripple Stitches
This crochet ripple pattern tutorial is simple to get the hang of and works up fast once you get the stitch repeats down. If you can double crochet and double crochet two together, then you can make this wave design!
Learn more about the double crochet stitch below.
Double Crochet (dc):
- Wrap the yarn over (Yo) the hook, insert the hook into the specified st.
- Yo the hook again, draw the yarn through the st, so there are 3 loops on the hook
- Yo the hook again draw it through 2 loops, so there are 2 loops on the hook
- Yo the hook, draw it through the final 2 loops.
Double Crochet Two Together (dc2tog)
- Yarn over, pick up a loop in next st
- Yarn over, draw the hook through 2 loops
- Yarn over, pick up a loop in next st

The Yarn That's Perfect for This Ripple Afghan Pattern!
For the entire tutorial, I worked with Red Heart Soft Yarn, which is a 100% acrylic fiber four weight yarn. You can find this yarn in many colors, but for this blanket I used the yarn colors Sea Foam and Berry.
This yarn is amazingly soft and is easy to find in most craft stores! It also works up beautiful in most crochet projects, so you'll definitely love how this yarn has fantastic drape and coziness.

You are welcome to use any color you wish, or the same as I did. Have fun with it, and remember any yarn color would look pretty wonderful with this blanket design.
