Materials Needed

Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in three colors: soft white, sky blue, and gentle gray.
Crochet Hook: Size H/8 (5mm) crochet hook.
Gauge: 14 stitches and 10 rows = 4 inches in ripple pattern.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Row

Using the soft white yarn, make a chain (ch) of 132 stitches. This will serve as the foundation for your blanket.

2. Row 1

In the 4th chain from the hook, make a double crochet (dc) stitch. This counts as your first dc. Now, follow these steps:

* Make 1 dc in the next 4 chains.
Make a dc2tog (double crochet two together) over the next 2 chains.
Make another dc2tog over the next 2 chains.
Make 1 dc in the next 4 chains.
Make 2 dc in the next chain.
Make 2 dc in the next chain; repeat from * across the row.

Once you reach the end of the row, turn your work.

3. Row 2

Start this row by chaining 3 (this counts as your first dc). Then, do the following:

Make 1 dc in the first dc of the previous row.
* Make 1 dc in the next 4 dc.
Make a dc2tog over the next 2 dc.
Make another dc2tog over the next 2 dc.
Make 1 dc in the next 4 dc.
Make 2 dc in the next dc.
Make 2 dc in the next dc; repeat from * across the row.

End the row by making 2 dc in the top of the turning chain, then turn your work.

4. Repeat Rows

Continue repeating Row 2, alternating colors every 4 rows in the following sequence:

Sky blue
Gentle gray
Soft white

Keep crocheting until your blanket measures approximately 36 inches in length.

5. Finishing Up

Once your blanket has reached the desired length, fasten off your yarn. Make sure to weave in all ends securely to give your blanket a neat finish.
