MOD SPRING FLING RIPPLE LAPGHAN PATTERN

This lapghan pattern is worked in dc sts following the initial sc foundation.

I chose to use bright colored yarns because I like color in my life … and I like cheery colors in my world come Spring 😉

Materials: Super Saver Worsted weight yarn in colors of choice – 14 ounces MC – and about equal amount of leftover yarns of choice for CC1, CC2, & CC3; Size G hook; tapestry needle; scissors.

I chose Lemon Yellow for my MC – with Ombre Jazzy Pink/CC1, Ombre Green Apple/CC2, & Ombre True Blue/CC3.

PATTERN: With MC, ch 169.

MAIN COLOR STRIPE - Row 1: 1 sc in 2^nd ch from hook, 1 sc in each of next 6 ch, *3 sc in next ch, 1 sc in each of next 7 ch, skip 2 ch, 1 sc I each of next 7 sc; repeat from * and end last repeat with 1 sc in each of 6 ch, skip 1 ch, 1 sc in last ch; ch 3.

Row 2: Turn – skip first st, *1 dc in back loop of each of 6 sts, 3 dc in back loop of next st, 1 dc in back loop of each next 7 sts, skip 2 sts; repeat from * and end last repeat with 1 dc in back loop of each next 6 sts, skip 1 st, 1 dc in back loop of last st; ch 3.

Row 3: Turn – skip first st, *1 dc in front loop of each of 6 sts, 3 dc in front loop of next st, 1 dc in front loop of each next 7 sts, skip 2 sts; repeat from * and end last repeat with 1 dc in front loop of each next 6 sts, skip 1 st, 1 dc in front loop of last st; ch 3.

Continue repeating Rows 2 & 3 for established pattern, having **6 rows in MC, 6 rows of CC1, 6 rows MC, 6 rows CC2, 6 rows MC, 6 rows CC3** DO NOT CUT YARN … you will carry MC yarn up the backside of lapghan as you work it and pick it up to be worked with each alternating dc st. Attach new color: When changing colors, always draw the new color through the last loop on hook before turning work.

Alternate MC and Color stripes until there are 8 count MC stripes, with MC stripe being the ending stripe. Cut MC and tie off. Neatly weave in loose ends.
