GRANNY RIPPLE COWL with Flower decoration

I decided I loved the sample piece so much it was worth starting again with the ripples running length ways.
US Terms in black UK Terms in red brackets 


I needed 9 ripples @ 23sts = 207 base ch. 
6mm hook and I've used Stylecraft Carnival Chunky in 2 colours

No extra stitches required as I am going to work this long cowl in the round, it will be big enough to hang low on warmer days 
but it is long enough to twist a second time around my neck for the chillier moments of next winter.



4 Complete rounds of 9 ripples weigh approx. 66g 
with a couple of flowers the 
total weight approx. 350/360g


PATTERN:
ch 207 sl st into a circle

ROUND 1: ch2 counts as first dc, 2dc [2tr] into same st, ch3, 3dc [3tr] into same st, (first point) 
picture below

miss 2 sts, 3dc [3tr] into next st, repeat twice more, 
miss 3sts,(bottom of ripple)  picture below




3dc [3tr]into next st, miss 2sts, 3dc [3tr] into next st, miss 2sts, 3dc [3tr] into the next st, miss 2 sts, 3dc, [3tr] ch3, 3dc [3tr] into next st, start of the next ripple repeat the full ripple of 8granny shells to the end, sl st to complete. (9 full ripples)


Granny Tip: st, mark each dip as you reach it...makes it easier on a long run of ripples to keep track, remove before adding the final finish round 18






Round 2- 15: sl st into the next sp, 3dc, ch3, 3dc into top points, 3dc (granny shell) into side spaces, and miss the bottom space to create the decrease and the up turn
top point above

miss bottom space above.

Round 16: change colour and repeat round 2.


Round 17: change back to main col. repeat round 2.
 I like the two finishes so have done one dotty on one edge and on contrast granny shell round on the second edge

To Finish: 
Round18: add a round of granny shells in the second colour to the spaces of the start ch, to complete the second edge of the long cowl.


FLOWER PATTERN
A 2 finger wrap of 6 wraps.
  Round 1: 12sc [12dc] into the circle


Round 2: ch3, counts as first tr, [dtr) 1tr [1dtr] into the same st, 1tr [1dtr] into the next st, ch3, sl st into the same st, sl st into the next st, repeat for all 6 petals, sl st to complete.

FINISH
add a pin the back of each flower add to cowl.

fold the cowl in half so you see both edgings and stay warm.

PART 5 & 6: SRAP GRANNY SHELL RIPPLE CAL BORDER


PART 5: BORDER

Decided to keep going with GS, [3dc in one stitch], for the border. 

Its almost one GS in every space/stitch, but not quite....one granny shell in every space across the end panels works fine, 
with 3dc, ch3, 3dc in all corners. 

But across the end of the ripple centre panel and down the half end panels, 1gs, in every space was 'frilly'......

Starting at the corner 3dc, ch3, 3dc, 
gs, in next 8sp, 
gs, next sp [3gs already in there]
 1gs in next 4 sp,

 miss next join sp, 
gs in next 2sp, miss next sp, 
gs in next 2sp, miss the next sp, 
gs in 2sp, miss one is done 5times,


 miss the next sp,
gs in the centre sp of the centre ripple panel,


repeat in reverse
 miss the fist sp, gs in next 2sp, repeating 5 times, 
 miss the join sp, 
then gs in next 14sp, 
3dc ch3 3dc in next corner.

across ends on panels there are 55gs
across end of ripple there are 51gs 

ROUND 2+: Add as many rounds as you want or have scrap yarn for.
GS in every sp, gs, ch3, gs, in corners.

Managed to add 4 rounds of granny shells, green, blue /green purple it changes as it goes around, rose, and burnt orange.

still to add: Red, cream, black and cream again if i have enough
