Chevron Crochet Blanket Pattern
"This Chevron Crochet Blanket Pattern creates a beautiful zig zag pattern consisting of peaks and valleys. Can be used as a blanket or bed scarf. In addition to the written pattern, there are photo tutorials, as well as, a video tutorial to help everyone be able to crochet this too. Look closely at this pattern and notice the details. There is almost a look of 3 D. This is achieved by crocheting in the back loop, using single crochet, and creating a zig zag pattern. Additionally, the yarn colors help create a country chic color pattern. The photo below helps show off the pattern illusion; however, take a look at the bed scarf photo too. The photo looks like the bed scarf is folded, but it is not. It is actually laying flat."
NotesPattern repeat is 29+3 if you would like it larger or smaller, multiply the number of peaks by 29, then add 3. Note: if you use a larger hook and thicker yarn, that will also change the size of this pattern.
