GAUGE:
18 sts + 16 rows= 7 1⁄4 inches x 4 3⁄4 inches (19x12cm) in Ripple Pattern.
BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Knit Preppy and Vineyard Ripple Knit Afghan Reviewed by Alice on 2012-04-01
This was my first afghan. It was really easy and only took me about a month to make. I used Claret, Fisherman and Cranberry. To complete it, I did need an extra skein of color A for the last ripple. If/when I make this pattern again, I will add 2-3 repeats of the pattern to each row. When you make it as is, it's a little skinny. Even so, it still turned out really pretty!
