Granny Ripple Afghans
Learn how to make a granny afghan that uses waves that go up and down in the width of the afghan. This is much simpler than you may realize.
Once you get the pattern on how it grows at the top peaks and reduces at the bottom valleys, it's a cinch!
Give it a try. I have provided resources below to help you.
I have a free pattern for you that can follow along, it's called Granny Goes Ripple.
In the video tutorial, I have shown an example of my crochet diagram that I used for myself. I figured out that I can change the sizes easily by figuring out the multiple chain counts.
For changing sizes, use Multiples of 18... at the end of the chain ADD 1.
Here is my diagram as part of my rough notes. You are welcome to save it and/or print it for your own records.

How do you calculate how much yarn if you use bigger needles than the pattern calls for?
Mikey says
that is just trial and error. You could crochet 6" of whatever it is... then measure the weight of the yarn. Determine how many more inches you need and make a calculation.

Currently creating this but just wondering if you have a video for the border? I struggle to read patterns.

The only video he has for this blanket is the one included in the blog.
