Ombre Ripple Blanket

"Well, it all started a few weeks ago while yarn shopping at Michaels when I came across some beautiful colors from Lion Brands Vanna’s Choice line. I originally went in to grab one skein for another project but walked out with 7! I couldn’t resist these colors! I mean are they not just amazing? I knew they would look perfect as a ripple blanket with an ombre effect to it. (Ombre means “the gradual blending of one color hue to another, usually moving from light to dark.”) I started my blanket with white working 15 rows and decreased the number of rows I made with each color added. I really am in love with how it turned out and I hope you love it too!"
