Let the yarn do the colorwork for you with the Huzzah Cluster Ripple Blanket crochet pattern. This playful wave blanket design uses a lively cluster stitch pattern to highlight the vibrant transitions of Lion Brand Ferris Wheel, a popular self-striping yarn with long, bold color changes. The result is a cheerful, texture-rich blanket with effortless color shifts: no cutting yarn and no changing colors required.

Perfect for brightening your home or gifting to someone special, this cozy blanket combines soothing repetition with the delight of watching the colors unfold. The pattern is suitable for adventurous beginners and beyond, making it an easy, engaging project for crocheters who love texture and visual impact without complexity.

HOW THIS BLANKET IS MADE
Worked in rows from the bottom up, the Huzzah Cluster Ripple Blanket features a simple two-row repeat with rhythmic increases and decreases that create gentle peaks and valleys — a classic ripple / wave design with modern texture. You’ll alternate rows of cluster stitches with rows of single crochet and back post single crochet, separated by chains, to form all those glorious pops of color and texture.

To help you crochet with confidence, the pattern includes four short photo tutorials that walk you through each special stitch step by step. A clean, simple border completes the blanket, giving your finished piece a polished, professional look.
