BASIC RIPPLE PATTERN

BEEN ASKED ABOUT THE WRIST WARMERS AND SLIPPER/SOCKS

CHAIN BASE 24 chain stitches in a ring to start you need multiples of 12 for this ripple

4chain for the 4 treble then one chain for the increase then 4 chain for the trebles then
3 chain for the decrease = 12 to make a ripple pattern
1ST ROW: Chain 3 as the 1st treble then do 3 more trebles in next 3 base chain
increase do 3 treble into the next chain stitch making a peek then 4 more trebles into the next 4 base chain
then half a treble into the next 3 stitches retaining the loops on the hook then hook the wool through all of the loops to make a vally
repeat to complete the 1st row
change colour if doing stripes and repeat the 1st row until you've done as many rows as you need to fit your wrist or foot
l did about 14 rows for the wrist warmer and 14 rows but a bigger hook for the slipper/sock for my size 4 shoe (6mm hook) and 16 rows and a bigger hook(7mm) again for OH slipper/socks at size 9 shoe

Hope that helps Debbie?
