Crochet Ocean Waves Pattern + Tutorial

Sharing is caring!

The Crochet Ocean Waves Textured Blanket resembles a regular crochet wave stitch. The significant difference is that you will use the back loops in every other row. This causes the waves to lift from each other for a three-dimensional textured look.

I figured out the math to make this stitch in different sizes. The stitch multiple is 15 chains + 4.

    The link for the written patter doesn’t look to be there anymore. Can you supply it? Thank you so much!

    I was trying to go to the pattern link to print a copy of the pattern, and for some reason none of the pages on the Red Heart site will load for me and I’m unable to reach the pattern page. This is not a total issue for my being able to do the pattern since there’s a tutorial video(I just like to use the pattern with the videos, to help improve my skills at reading patterns) but wanted to share that something seems to be wrong with Red Hearts website, and I can’t locate a way to let them know directly.
