Ripple Afghan

I had some yarn I’ve acquired from both of my grandmothers who loved to crochet.  After each had passed away, I ended up with a bit of their yarn collections.

I didn’t know what to do with some of the yarn that I wasn’t particularly fond of!

It’s been years since I’ve had these yarns, and I finally decided I had time for a bigger project.  I decided an afghan was the way to go.  I’d used this pattern before, and thought it was great.  I recommend it!

The original pattern is called Ripple Beige Afghan by Bernat (login required, but it's free to join).  It’s a free PDF download.

The yarns I used were:

• Red Heart Rambling Rose
• Kolor Match White (discontinued)

I really like ripple afghans these days.  I especially love the chevron blankets that are popular now!  Here are some more free ripple afghan patterns:
