Translated the look of annypurl’s knitted ‘Buddy Bags’ into crochet by alternating three-row stripes in two shades of pink.

A special thank you to the yarn fairies, Ann of Oklahoma and Sandi of Maryland, who sent me some ‘Light Raspberry’ and ‘Petal Pink’ last August. Ladies, you made this charity ripple possible!

As usual I modified the Rustic Ripple pattern - used an H hook with only one strand of yarn and increased each run of double crochet stitches to ten stitches.
