Designed by Teresa Chorzepa for Lion Brand yarns, this afghan is aimed at beginner crocheters. The ripple afghan measures approximately 42″ x 54″ when finished. Perfect for snuggling up on the couch.
The pattern recommends Lion Brand Homespun yarns. Soft, silky and beautiful! Homespun is a uniquely textured Bulky weight (Size 5) yarn that works up quickly and easily. From shawls to sweaters to throws, this yarn can’t be beat for softness and sheer touch-ability. With solids, heathers, and beautiful self-striping ‘painterly’ colors, Homespun comes in over 45 gorgeous shades you’ll love. Some colors have long, slow color variations that cause them to subtly stripe which adds to the beauty of the finished garment,
To make the ripple afghan, you will need the following supplies:

- US Size K-10.5 (6.5mm) crochet hook
