My favorite pattern! Working on one right now
This looks like my baby blanket ripple pattern that I used when I made my 5 grandchilren each a twin size blanket for christmas a couple years ago.
I would love this pattern but every time I try to open it comes up as Web site cannot be found. This constantly happens with this company.

thank you so much. I appreciate it.
I have done something similar. I got the pattern from ravlery. It is called the brighton blanket
I love it!
I get the same results. The pattern I use is one my older sister taught me. I don’t know where she got the pattern. It is very easy. It is a multiple of 21.
For example, for a twin size, I make 12 peaks, so I chain 252 (12 x 21). First sc is done on the second chain and repeat 8 times. So you have 9 sc. On the 10th chain, do three sc. Then you sc on the next nine chains. Skip two chains and you sc on the 3rd chain and eight sc on next eight chains. Then you are back at doing three on 10th chain. Repeat this pattern until you make your last peak.
At this last peak, work eight sc, skip the ninth chain and last sc on tenth chain. Turn and chain one and you start on the next row. Make sure to only work on the back loop to get the ripple effect.
Hope you can understand what I said and find it useful.
thank you. Honestly, the picture doesn’t do it justice.
