Mavericks Wave Ripple Blanket
Mavericks Wave Knitted Blanket is a stunning and versatile addition to your home decor, created from a light and airy ripple design. This beautiful blanket is available in six different sizes and features four alternating shades of colors, allowing you to customize it to your unique style. The Ripple Ridge Lace Knitting Pattern effortlessly produces a gorgeous and graceful texture that will elevate any room. Drawing inspiration from vintage feather and fan designs, this old shale stitch variation introduces added structure with delicate garter ridges nestled between each of the lacy rows.
Skill Level: Intermediate. Knitting the entire blanket is manageable with a simple combination of knits, purls, along with the essential increases and decreases. Perfect for those looking to enhance their knitting skills, this pattern will serve as a rewarding challenge.
Circular Knitting Needles Required: 8 US (5.0 mm) – 36? length. While my yarn recommends using a needle size of 4 - 6 US, I opted for size 8 to achieve a more airy and lacy finished piece. This choice allows the vibrant colors and intricate design to truly stand out.
Pattern Row Repeats: The pattern features an 8-row repeat, making it easy to memorize and execute. The rhythmic nature of this repeating pattern ensures that you can enjoy the knitting process without becoming overwhelmed.
Lies Flat: One of the standout features of this design is its ability to lie flat effortlessly. Although the lace eyelets are set within a soft stockinette texture, the garter stitch ridges provide the necessary structure, ensuring that your finished blanket maintains its shape beautifully.
Not Reversible: It’s important to note that this is not a reversible pattern, as the exquisite design is only displayed on the right side of your work. This adds a touch of sophistication to the blanket, making it a striking addition to any living space.
Whether you're knitting for yourself, as a thoughtful gift, or looking to create a beautiful item for your home, the Mavericks Wave Knitted Blanket pattern is a perfect choice. Start your knitting journey today and enjoy the satisfaction of wrapping yourself or a loved one in this elegant and cozy masterpiece.
