It’s no secret that I love using asymmetry in my designs. I’m sharing the free crochet pattern for the Granny Chevron Wrap, a granny ripple pattern for a rectangular wrap that features stripes and color blocking to make a dramatic statement.

Scroll down for the free pattern for the Granny Chevron Wrap. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen this progress photo a few weeks back.
I was just at the very beginning of this granny ripple pattern journey.
I wanted to design a pattern that could be worked in one piece (to satisfy those many crocheters who like the look of the granny stitch but aren’t fans of seaming). If you also aren’t a fan of weaving in ends, feel free to make your version of this granny ripple pattern in one color.
I like the way this wrap has two sides (two personalities?) to it. There’s the light and cheerful striped side, and there’s the dark and subtle solid side.
Emphasize which ever side you prefer as you style your Granny Chevron Wrap! I originally started this project with the yarn I had left over from the Hummingbird Hat and Baby Bird Blanket Knit-a-Long, but then I decided to go out and buy some more Lion Brand Heartland yarn in Glacier Bay, one of my favorite colorways. I’ve actually used it in several previous designs:
- Diagonal Box Stitch Square,
- It’s a School Night Night Child’s Blanket,
- Mitered Square Pet Blanket,
- Valiant Stripes Scarf,
- Intensive Love Blanket, and
- Circle with Popcorn Granny Square.
As you can see, it’s a very versatile color!
This pattern was originally designed as part of the 2nd Annual Granny Square Month with Underground Crafter.
