Yarn Needed for This Granny Ripple Blanket

You can use any #4 worsted-weight yarn for this granny chevron blanket pattern, but what truly makes the difference is your color choice. The right combination is what makes that chevron zigzag pattern really pop and stand out beautifully.

For my version, I used Lion Brand Pound of Love, a slightly thinner worsted-weight yarn that I was lucky enough to receive as a Christmas gift 😊. It worked up beautifully and gave the blanket such a soft, lovely drape.

But honestly, use whatever worsted-weight yarn you love and have on hand. Whether you go bold and vibrant or soft and neutral, your blanket is going to turn out absolutely gorgeous.

YO and insert your hook into the 1^st CH, YO again, and pull up a loop (three loops on the hook). YO and pull through one loop (this forms the “chain” part of the foundation). YO and pull through two loops, then YO and pull through the last two loops to complete the first DC. For the next stitch, yarn over, insert your hook into the “chain” part of the previous stitch, and repeat. Watch here.

• Stacked single crochet: Insert your hook into the 1^st ST of the row. Make a SC, insert your hook into the left vertical bar (the front leg of the SC you just made).YO and pull up a loop, YO and pull through both loops—this completes the STSC. Watch here.

Pattern Notes

• I used a thinner medium-weight yarn, so if you’re using a different yarn, make sure to measure the width of your piece after working a few rows. If your throw turns out much wider than the pattern, try switching to a smaller hook.
