Little Waves Variation Section

Design by Marie Segares/Underground Crafter.

The Little Waves Variation uses stitches in a variety of heights worked in the back loop to mimic gentle movement and texture.

This pattern is part of the Sectional Blanket Crochet Along, a mystery crochet along for a throw blanket crocheted in 7″ x 9″ (18 cm x 23 cm) sections, the size preferred by our charity partner, Warm Up America. New clues will be released on Fridays through December 16, 2022.
