Crochet Ripple Stitch Pattern #2
We make this pattern using a double crochet stitch and a slip stitch. The rows of the slip stitches give the density. The fabric stretches very little both in length and in width. You can use this ripple pattern for crochet the interior items: coverlets, covers, carpets, and anywhere where else you need a special density. For crochet we use the yarn as least of two colors. The first and second row are made in one color, and the third and fourth row - the other, and so on.
For an example make chain stitches a multiple of 16, plus 8 chains for the symmetry of the pattern, plus 3 turning chains. The rapport of the pattern in height - 2 row.
1 row: skip 3 chains, 2 double crochet with common top in next 2 chains, 5 double crochet in each chain, * bundle of 5 double crochet in same chain, 5 double crochet in each chain, 5 double crochet with common top in next 5 chains, 5 double crochet in each chain *, bundle of 3 double crochet in last chain;
2 row: 1 turning chain, then slip stitch in each stitch of previous row;
3 row: 3 turning chains, 3 double crochet with common top in next 3 stitches, 5 double crochet, * bundle of 5 double crochet in same stitch, 5 double crochet, 5 double crochet with common top in next 5 stitches, 5 double crochet*, bundle of 3 double crochet in last stitch of row;
4 row: 1 turning chain, then slip stitch in each stitch of previous row.
Then, we repeat 3rd and 4th row with alternating colors.
