You are my hero. Only tutorial out of, literally, 20 (video, written, pattern), that has lead me to successfully crochet a true chevron pattern with beautifully straight edges. Tears of joy this time, rather than frustration. Thank you thank you! 😊

[@tonid7490]

I had the same experience. This is the only video that worked for me.

[@valerieenglert6947]

Thanks so much for this lovely pattern. You explain it perfectly and make it easy to follow!

[@tonid7490]

I just have to tell you -- for more than one year, I have watched dozens and dozens of videos, innumerable attempts to make a chevron blanket, I FINALLY have it mastered. Thanks all to this video. I don't know how to THANK YOU for this video. I was so frustrated, ready to give up -- I thought ok maybe ONE MORE video and I will try again. And...magic! I don't know why yours is different than all the others, but this one worked. I can't even express how grateful I am to you. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!

[@lesafrakes3578]

I'm so excited to give this a try, like so many other viewers, I have watched several videos and this one actually makes sense. Thanks for the clear explanation!

[@rothmaam]

THE BEST chevron tute I've found. Thankyou, and well done.

[@Glam-pf5hc]

I have learned so MUCH from you! I have watched SEVERAL (at least 5) different videos on (I am a visual learner) making the Chevron (My GMA called it the Ripple Stitch back in the 60's-70's??) Blanket.
Your explanation of how this is done really "clicked" (finally) with me.
So, in other words, if you continue to make the first two rows that you've shown in the video over and over again (to achieve the length/width of the blanket.....you're all set, correct?
Thank so much. You have me wanting to create blankets for my great-grandkids (and my grandkids aren't even old enough to marry yet!) I am chronically ill and want the grands & my children to have some heirlooms to keep.

[@sandygrogg1203]

Yes.. That first row can be tricky.. Just in case…I usually add a few extra chains…

[@dawnbutton3321]

Thank you for taking the time to show me how to do this.

[@joelleraffard5985]

I would have like to see multiple rows in the video not just the first as if mistakes are made in counting and placement of the stitches I am finding come later on
I need videos! I’m such a visual learner!💜

[@ohsokittykat]

thank you this was very helpful. short and sweet, easy to follow and right to the point

[@adelaensley1841]

I REALLY like the steeper peaks!

[@kayanderson3984]

Thank you , I have been struggling for five days on the ends of my first blanket new beginner.

[@shirleyguenther]

Just LOVE to watch you crochet!!! And your tutorials are amazing!!!!

[@melodymaben5917]

Absolutely love the yarn

[@dovz4337]

I am making this now in ❤️🤍💙 for my granddaughter for Christmas💚🎄❤️ I added more peaks💗 The K hook and crochet back loop only makes this blanket squishy😍😂

[@PumpkinPandaZ]

Still love this pattern! Thank you

[@carmelinacolangelo3739]

I always seem to have 8 left over at the end when I start. Not sure why

[@emilyroselayne5682]

This beautiful and I can’t wait to try this 😍

[@aprilquam-harker2747]

Nice, can't wait to try it 🙂

[@helenturner746]

Love it 🥰

[@erinlouiseburns94]

Can this be made using double crochet stitches?

[@xxsunsetxx4240]

Looks easy just beginning t hanks

[@matthewcoleman9398]

Can u use bernat blanket yarn it not like the one u using I wondering if it work.cause ot so.chunky hard to use

[@DeniseVigilo]

Started out fine all the rows counted right ending with the last two stitches to sc2tog . Somehow counts are off I ripped it out 5 times . Any suggestions?

[@heleneholm7059]

Yes -me 2 … but I’m missing 2 at the end 🤯😅

[@mommy9704]

Mine never line up 😂I feel the pain 😢

[@MyCrazy4life]

When you skip two to make the valley. How do you do it without it leaving a hole? I can't figure out how to do it tightly.

[@anitamany4840]

That hold is suppose to be there. It’s in all chevrons patterns

[@cynthiaconley3798]

I’m having a hard time keeping my edging straight? Any suggestions ❤️

[@Karen822]

❤

[@tompugsley4123]

I too am having difficulty making my outer edges straight. How do you solve this issue when you crochet two together at the end of each row?

[@yogitayadav6902]

Can you tell me please which kind of wool to use

[@tyryder5026]

I took 29 ×8 +3=235
Is that correct? I have tried starting this 6 or 7 times. Lol

[@mommy9704]

When u skip the 2 when u join the sc stitch is that 1 or do u not count that one

[@terriblack2795]

Yes that is #1 then continue to the hill
