  4. This is what the pattern ask for, once its done it looks pretty and with a straight edge.

  5. In my opinion leaving that last stitch unworked is wrong. Instead I used a DC turn ch 1. Just sayin' Nancy F. Nfish2@verizon.net

  8. Why are you only chaining one? Don’t you usually chain 3 for a double crochet? I’m a beginner and just confused.

  10. Thank you for sharing this pattern! I find the chain 1 very interesting and I’m eager to try it out. I just got the yarn I will be working on it tonight. Thank you for this new-to-me twist to experiment with!

  11. Hello, Amy. After working 7 rows of your intriguing pattern, I love it! Finally, I’m able to crochet a ripple afghan with straight edges! For those in doubt, perhaps nicest a bit of time in crocheting a dishcloth using this method. You may be very pleasantly surprised! After 30+ years of crocheting, Amy’s pattern is my answer to the dc ripple afghan! Thank you, Amy!
    PS. I’m currently taking a break from blogging, but when I return, I’ll be highlighting this pattern and linking your page. Great job!

    You mention 2 balls of 3 colors. Exactly how much yardage do I buy?
    Thanks Sue

  16. Hello, how would work the pattern if I wanted it 72 by 80?
    Thank you

  18. Thank you for this pattern! I have tried chevron blankets many times over the last 20 years of crocheting and the edges are always wavy. This pattern makes them straight and works up really quick. :)
