I started working on this project a few months ago. I wanted to make a wide scarf, but somewhere alone the way I changed my mine about the color and the texture. So I'm going to unravel this crochet piece. But before I do so, I thought I should share the stitch pattern. It is a beautiful stitch, which can be used for a variety of crochet projects.

The stitch Looks lovely. I can see it made into a table runner.
ReplyDeleteWow! I think the piece you are about to unravel is beautiful. Even if I changed my mind (which I do often), I don't think I could unravel that much beautiful work. It doesn't help any that I am very slow at crocheting and it would take me forever to crochet as much as you are about to unravel. Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! I finally finished my afghan from your pattern and plan to post pictures to my blog soon. It turned out so pretty. Your patterns are a joy to work with. Thank you so much fro sharing your gift!
ReplyDeleteIt is a beautiful pattern! xx
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful ripple pattern! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteWow I love this crocheted ripple stitch! It's so pretty looking and thanks for sharing how to make it!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Olga... I will start making some 20x20 Preemie blankets for the Hospital. This is so lovely.
ReplyDeletebeautiful pattern :)

ReplyDeleteOlga, it is a beautiful pattern, thank you for sharing,.

Beautiful pattern! Would you be able to suggest how many chains to start with for a baby afghan in either weight category 4 or 2? Thanks in advance! Can't wait to make this. I've been looking for a pattern that combines solid ripples with lace ripples for a long time.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, I think this stitch will work nicely for a baby blanket.
DeleteLet's see, when I make blankets with category 4 yearn, I usually start somewhere around 120-140 chains. So for this stitch, which is a multiple of 16, I would probably start with ch 130 (16*8=128 plus 2).
And for category 2 yarn, I would probably start with 162 (16*10=160 plus 2).
Hope this helps :)
What a gorgeous stitch Olga, I am definitely going to make something up using it .. I love it!

ReplyDeleteGreat pattern. I did have to make two adjustments to get it to lay flat. For the base chain, I increased to a repeat of 20 and skipped 4 ch between each sc. I also increased to ch5 at the beginning of rows 2 and 4 and ch3 at the beginning of row 6.
