Manta Arco-Íris Ripple (Croché)

I've crocheted for years but always avoided ripple patterns because the increases confused me. This PDF walks through each row in US terms so clearly that my first blanket came out with perfectly even waves. Finished it in about three weeks of evening TV crocheting.

The PDF is written in US terms which saved me from converting everything in my head. Each row of the ripple is spelled out step by step, so I never had to guess where the next increase went. Finished the throw in three weeks.

I've been crocheting for years and usually end up confused by UK versus US stitch terms, so having this written entirely in US terms was a relief. The PDF is clear and the step-by-step instructions made the ripple rows easy to keep straight.
