Bring colour, texture and movement to your next project with this playful twist on a classic ripple blanket. Worked in rows using six shades of Scheepjes Colour Crafter, the palette is inspired by the iconic Dutch tulip fields in glorious full bloom.

Measuring 65 x 90cm (approximately 25.5 x 35.5in), the finished blanket is perfectly sized for little ones, making it a thoughtful gift or a practical addition to any nursery. The pattern includes tips for easily scaling the project into a scarf or a larger throw.

A great project for newer crocheters, it’s ideal for practising increases and decreases. It also puts a textural spin on the popular crochet wave pattern with soft puff stitch detailing. These stitches create a gentle, tactile surface that’s perfect for little fingers to explore.

The pattern includes a handy colour placement table for those using the pictured palette, making it easy to recreate the look or customise your own version. Made using machine-washable and skin-friendly Scheepjes Colour Crafter, this project combines comfort, practicality and joyful making in one beautiful design.
