Finding lightweight projects to work on during the summer can be tricky. You want to crochet but it's too hot to be holding a thick blanket next to your skin for hours. I usually make toys and small things in the summertime, but I really had the urge to make a blanket. So I came up with a lightweight ripple crochet pattern that is perfect for summer. I can imagine this being a blanket you wrap your little one in when it's windy but so nice out you just need a beach day! The pattern itself is really simple to recreate and there's just a thin border around the edge to finish it off and keep it wavy."

"With St. Patrick's Day less than a month away, I thought a Rainbow Shamrock blanket pattern would be a fun and quick project to share with you all! Aside from white, you won't have more than one color in each row. This really cut down on the number of ends that I had to weave in. To be fair for you left handed crocheters, I flipped the graph so that you will also only have one rainbow color in each row. If you find that to be helpful and would like for me to provide a flipped graph for my other c2c patterns, please reach out on social media (Instagram or Facebook)."
