Ripple effect mandala is the mandala I worked on all summer .. it went with me and the kids to the playgrounds and seaside .. on shorter and longer adventures with family and friends .. mine as well as their .. for me it embodies and all the happy places we managed to visit this summer :)

As with all the things that take time - it is good to know what you are trying to achieve - so with first stitches I decided it should look like a giant flower. And I took it with me and worked on it whenever I could..

The name Ripple Effect came to me when I was looking at it half way done and thinking whether or not I should finish it (because I got stuck :stuck_out_tongue: as it sometimes happens to everyone) and it hit me - even though everything repeats (and might get boring at times) it is never quite the same if we keep on going so I persevered .. & it bloomed just wonderfully ..
what I wanted to say - yes it is possible to find the happiness in mundane tasks or to find the twist that makes those things special :) like going to the playground for 100th time that week .. :stuck_out_tongue:

Pattern pdf consists of 19 pages including:

  • Written Instructions (in English, US crochet terms);
  • Picture for each round.

And if after reading and trying out you have any additional questions - contact me and I will try to answer you as soon as possible ;)

I enjoyed making mandala and writing up the pattern - I hope you will enjoy it too ! ☀

P.S. Actually there are 2 pdf’s for this pattern .. pattern itself is the same in both - main difference: one has pictures for each round, but the other one is plain pattern with no pictures for more advanced crocheters!
