Granny Ripple Zigzag Crochet Blanket

Looking for a granny ripple blanket pattern that’s easy to follow and bursting with color? 

7 SIZES

This stunning granny ripple zigzag design uses the iconic granny stitch for this handmade blanket. 

It’s written in seven different sizes, so you can make everything from a cozy baby blanket to bold statement afghan patterns for your living room. 

BEGINNER FRIENDLY CROCHET PATTERN

The timeless charm of the granny stitch is a fun and relaxing project that’s perfect for crocheters of all skill levels—especially beginners!

If you want a stress-free project with stunning results, the granny ripple stitch is a great place to start. The stitch pattern is simple and repetitive, making it ideal for beginners, yet it still creates a striking zigzag texture that looks far more advanced than it really is.
