Delicate Ripple Knit Baby Blanket Pattern
Stitches Used:
k (knit)
p (purl)
yo (yarn over)-video below
k2tog (knit 2 together)- video below
ssk (slip, slip, knit slipped stitches together) -video below
Instructions:
Using any cast on that you love, cast on in multiples of 11+1 you control the size of your baby blanket, I used size 3 single pointed knitting needles. But you could knit on circular needles if you make it very large. And you can use any size needles, that go with the weight of yarn you choose. This yarn was acrylic baby yarn.
This is a repeating pattern of 17 rows as follows:
Row 1: *k1,yo,k3,k2tog,ssk,k3,yo,* k1 [you can see how this pattern between the *s require 11 stitches, you repeat the 11 stitches the number of times you cast on, until the last stitch then k1] This is the beauty of the ripple stitch and lace in one.
Row 2: purl
Row 3: repeat pattern row
Row 4: purl
Row 5: repeat pattern row
Row 6: purl
Row 7: purl
Row 8: knit
Row 9: purl
Row 10: Repeat pattern row.
Row 11: purl
Row 12: repeat pattern row
Row 13: purl
Row 14: repeat pattern row
Row 15: purl
Row 16: purl
Row 17: knit
Repeat these 17 rows until you have the length you like.
Row number 9 is the odd row that flips the pattern over making this a double sided blanket. There is no wrong side. By starting the eight rows of pattern on a purl row instead of a knit row causes the pattern to reverse to the other side.
The pictures I have taken while I was making this pattern. and I added a couple extra rows for weight but have since decided it is unnecessary. But you can still see what will happen with the reversing of the sides. I like to make patterns as I knit, and sometimes I get too creative. The Blue picture is the pattern without reversing it. I was hoping you would be able to see the lace effect better.

Amazing! Its actսally remarkable post, Ӏ hɑve ցot muсh
cleаr idea гegarding fгom this article.
How many cast on do you do for a 36″ blanket using a size 8 circular needle. Pattern row 1 do you do what is in * 11 stitches + 1 all across that row and knit 1 at the end of the row. I’m confused. Please tell me exactly what I need to do. What size was your blanket using the size 3 needles?
Thank you for your question. I made this little blanket a long time ago. and I don’t have my statistics. I just did the math and cast on, and if it isn’t enough just keep adding multiple of 11. That’s the thing. how ever many groups of 11 that you cast on, at the end of the cast on, add that one last 1 stitch. So for simple math example. you cast on four groups of 11, which equals 44, then add one stitch for a total of 45. I hope that helped. as for the first row, the pattern row. It is *k1,yo,k3,k2tog,ssk,k3,yo,* k1 so… knit 1, yarn over, knit 3, knit 2 together, slip slip knit, knit three, yarn over, Do these 11 stitches in pattern over and over until all of your cast on stitches in groups of 11 is done, then that one little stitch over at the end of the row, knit 1. I hope that helps you Dorene and anyone else with these questions. Susan
