Can someone diagnose why my chainless ripple foundation is coming out square instead of rippled? The peaks are fine, but the valleys are flat

Are you doing the decreases into consecutive stitches?

Yes (I think). Is that incorrect? I've looked and looked at the video, and that's what she appeared to be doing.

Nope, that's what you're supposed to do. Have you tried just turning and going back the other way to see if it straightens out?

I'll give it a try Pidj. It's just so very square, I thought it must be completely wrong

I've never done it, too used to regular foundation chaining, but worth a try :o

I've given up and going back to chaining. I had been cocking up the decreases, but even when I fixed what I'd done wrong, it still wasn't looking right. Thanks for trying though

Ooh, pics!

Here are the first few rows of my Attic24 Granny Stripe blanket, using foundation single crochet chain which worked a treat, I can't see me going back to chains now.
