Diagonal Ripple Lapghan Free Crochet Pattern
Afghans and Blankets
For the Diagonal Ripple Lapghan, I modified the Diagonal Chevrons Lapghan pattern to create a different chevron or ripple look. Many crocheters love working the classic crochet ripple pattern in BLO to create a neat ridge effect so I gave it a whirl when working on the bias. If you love to work crochet blankets from corner-to-corner (also known as working on-the-bias) and you love crochet chevrons, then you will really enjoy this lapghan pattern.

Open Stitch Quick Crochet Lapghan
Afghans and Blankets
This open stitch lapghan pattern is pretty and perfect for toddlers and up. It's great for people in wheelchairs or anyone wishing to cozy up by the fireplace. I used a worsted weight economic yarn, but any yarn should work just as well. I love the solid color, but it can also be worked up in stripes if you like. Best part is that it is a beginner friendly making it great for anyone to master. Plus, if you work it up in stripes you can use up your odds and ends.
Dot To Dot Lapghan Crochet Pattern
Afghans and Blankets
This geometric crochet lapghan can serve as a small blanket for the couch or the car, and it can also function as a decorative rug. High contrast streams of bobbles accent a simple base of double crochet to bring a modern aesthetic to this easy project. I am obsessed with the uneven striping and lines of bobbles in this blanket!
Although this piece is really meant for the home, I saw so many wearable blankets on the runway this season, and I can definitely see myself sporting this over a sweater while social distance dining outdoors as the temps start to drop!
