Triple Ripple Chevron Throw Crochet Pattern

The Triple Ripple Throw Blanket
Crochet Pattern by
Sara Sach of


THIS CROCHET PATTERN HAS BEEN UPDATED WITH A PHOTO TUTORIAL,
 AND A BRAND NEW VIDEO,
YOU CAN NOW FIND IT AT THIS LINK


I bought the pillows, from Target,
 to match The blue futon on the back deck.
It is a covered deck, so I wasn't worried about 
them getting too wet.
Then I thought it sure would be nice to have a throw
 for cool mornings and evenings,
Just to toss across my legs.

I Made the Throw to match the pillows
 and futon cover.
I know they do not match perfectly, 
but I really like how they work together.

I made the throw from Red Heart Super Saver as
 I wanted to use a yarn that 
was durable, and washable.

Hint about washing  items made with
Acrylic yarns like
Red Heart Super Saver - Wash in warm water 
on gentle cycle,use a tiny bit of liquid soap
 and a fabric softener. 
Then hang to dry. 
It is an Acrylic yarn and should 
never go in the dryer.
I realize many yarn labels say it is ok to 
machine wash and dry items made with acrylic yarn,
But I want the items  l design to last as long as possible.


I chose to use Triple Crochet because
 I wanted the throw to be light and airy, not heavy

It is pooch Approved!

2 Afghan Crochet Patterns

2  Afghan Patterns I am Working on.
The first one is for a Sweet friend
who is getting married.
I am only 1/2 way done but it is turning out great.
It is stitched with chunky yarn, 
and even though it has holes, 
will be extremely warm.
You will find the pattern on the 
Lion Brand Yarn webpage.

The Second Afghan is for me.
This is the Corner to Corner Crochet Pattern.
It is a lovely stitch and extremely easy.
I am using Red heart Super saver.
Using up some of my yarn stash.
You will find the pattern on the 
Red Heart Yarn Webpage.
