This is one of the first crochet projects I made with your help. I will miss your positive videos, joy and fun ideas. Forever missed ❤
Forever missed 💗
This was my very first crochet blanket. I learned so much from her. I'm going to make it again for my son. R.I.P. Melanie, you are truly missed.
I'm so glad that I found your channel. I crocheted as a child but haven't picked up a hook in 30 plus yrs. My oldest daughter is expecting so she asked that I make a blanket for her baby. I was familiar with the basic stitches but you tutorial is awesome. I downloaded this patter but it was also helpful to watch you doing it while I read through the pattern instructions. I can't thank you enough. I'm one of your newest subscribers. I see Christmas projects in my future. Thank you so much.
Thank you for guiding me through this tutorial! Ive been making my own chevron blanket with this tutorial and its coming out beautifully. Bless your heart, soul, and family ❤
Your instructions are clear and understandable, I like how you refer back to your finished piece to show how it looks and ensure the count. I will definitely be checking out your other videos. Thanks so much!
I'm still a beginner so your videos are my go-to right now lol love your personality and enthusiasm girl! I really enjoy crochet and these videos help me so much. I love the way you explain everything clearly too. Very professional and easy which I enjoy!
I completely understood your steps and I am in the process of making one with light blue, darker blue and white! You are a amazing teacher and I have learned so much from you! Don't listen to the people who think you go too fast. You have a perfect speed! Love ya!:)
Beautiful! I've made two.. working on number 3 of 4! One for each of my children for Christmas! Thank you!!
I'm so glad I found this video. I have never ventured beyond just a sc, DC, or tc but I wanted to advance & try new things. The blanket I'm making using your pattern is turning out beautifully. Thanks so much for posting this video.
I absolutely love your videos! I have been in a crochet break because every project I started took too long, but I have been following you for less than a month and I have made two scarfs, one beanie and i am finishing a pretty sizable blanket with the baby blanket 'brick' pattern. This is my next one. Thank you for the inspiration.
You are awesome Melanie! I couldn't grasp the chevron concept until I saw this video. Stopping and showing a visual of the concept was PERFECT! Now I get it. Thank you so much for all your great videos. Love your content.

Love this pattern, and this yarn is so soft. I’m making my 2nd blanket with it, yours! It’s explained so well. Thanks 😊
thank you times a million for this video!! You demonstrate the steps so well and explain it all perfectly. can't wait to make one of these!
Starting mine today! I'm pretty sure this video will get a million views just from me! xoxo Excited for my mommy blanket for my nursery!
Thanks for the simplest instructions on crocheting chevrons. The end product is so very pretty. I personally enjoy working with chunky yarn, somehow it's much easier for my small hands to grasp.
Thank you so much for this video. It helped me finally figure out the concept. This is going to make wonderful Christmas gifts.
Love this blanket Melanie! I am about half way done with it. My grandkids call it the Zebra Blanket. Thanks for all your wonderful video tutorials.
I love this tutorial I've made 3 chevron blankets since this video came out. I usually come back to make sure I did everything right. Thanks you for this tutorial!
I made a Dark Grey and White blanket! It's amazing and everyone is asking me to make them one! Love this pattern so much, and it's really easy to do once you do a few rows
This is so gorgeous and would make such a lovely xmas gift for someone special.
Hi Melanie! Hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving. Just was watching your video and have been wanting to make a red, white and blue chevron blanket for a while now, but wasn't sure as how to make it. You have that magical touch of teaching us easier ways of understanding the different stitch types of crocheting. I am working on a blanket for my daughter, and this is my next project for the Christmas vacations from work. Thanks for all you do to inspiring us to be crafty. Happy Holidays!
Ive been waiting for the perfect easy project to use up my balls of bernat blanket yarn. Can't wait to start this project this week!!
This is the easiest chevron print. Just made my second blanket, and it is PERFECT, I can not stop looking at it. Just subscribed to Melanie. Also I am eager to watch her other videos to see what other easy tutorials she has. THANKS!
I went out after work and got yarn, I am making this as a Christmas gift to myself and my boyfriend. I am so excited to finish my first blanket!
Love this blanket!!! OMG I love the pillow too!! I have been thinking of a cover to make for a pillow I have! Thank you!
I am late, but am beginning this blanket tomorrow. I am so excited!! Love this blanket. If all works out, I will attempt a smaller version for my brand new niece. Thank you for the awesome videos.
I made this blanket and it is so beautiful and EASY to make. Thanks for the awesome tutorial!
Really good video! It is a lot easier for me to see the stitches with this larger yarn. I think it will help to do this and then go back to some smaller yarn work. Thank you for the video!
Thank you so much!! You explained this tutorial a lot better then other videos I've seen. The blanket I made for my little brother came out so cute 😍 I used black and blue for the stripes 💙 thank you again 😊🙏🏼
That blanket turned out so pretty! Love it!
Great pattern for this blanket and love the colors. Thank you
Starting my very first blanket. Great instructions!
Oh Melanie! That's beautiful! and it looks very easy to make. I'm going to try it!!
I'm in process of crocheting the chevron blanket. So far it's turning out really well.
I have tried this pattern so many times with different people on you tube and I haven't found one easy enough for me to make. Until I found your video and now I'm enjoying make this blanket thank you so much.
+MsShorty brantley that's awesome! Thank you for sharing that with me! Happy Stitching!
Thank you for sharing, I-have been wanting to make this pattern but didn’t know how until I seen your tutorial. Didn’t know it was this easy. Making my Aunt one in red and white.
Soo Beautiful!!! You are such an amazing teacher!!! Thank you very much for the great amazing tutorial!
Gorgeous! Can't wait to start
Melanie, I am so thrilled to have found your tutorials. I just started crocheting again after 50 years...yes I was 10 when I last crocheted. I picked up the crochet needle and like you mentioned in previous videos muscle memory kicked in. But I couldn't remember the stitches so I began watching your videos. You are a joy to watch. You patiently and thoroughly teach and makes it so easy to follow you. I'm currently making the beginner scarf and it's coming out very nice. A few problems with a bit of curling on the very first few rows and the sides could be a little straighter. But overall I think I'm doing a good job and I have you to thank. Please tell me how I can be notified of your tutorials that aren't free. I can't find the video you mentioned it in. Thank you again for your dedication to helping us newbies and not so new crocheter's. All the best to you!
I love this! Your tutorials are great! I can't wait to make it!
Melanie this is an awesome awesome tutorial ... you're great at this.. thank you thank you
I find your videos wonderful, containing lots of information for thousands of people, also it's a great source of inspiration for me personally :)
besides that wanted to add this Chevron Blanket looks really stylish :)
Beautiful!! Thanks for making this tutorial. 😊😊
Have to say I absolutely love your videos and have learned alot you make it easy to learn
I was trying to get this using another video and it just wasn't working out. I finally got it with help from this video. Thank you for this!
No more buying gifts for love ones ... crocheting is labor of love ❤️
Omg i luuurve the pillows and blanket!!
I did the smaller size you suggested, 77 chain and I didn’t even use a full 3 balls of yarn (I made mine 3 colours) and I decided to wrap it up there. Great size for a baby or child blanket :)
Thank you for the info, those little details help a newbie like me out.
I'm making this as we speak. I'm using a blood red, pristine creamy white. and a Heather grey. this is super simple and very pretty. thank you.
very beautiful can't wait to try this!
+Melanie Ham. Thank you so much for getting back to me. I really appreciate it. I was going to buy the 'white'. Thanks for saving the day!! Keep up the amazing work! I learned how to crochet from you. Your amazing!💙
Thank u so much .... i have started this design and it's wonderful...❣❣❣❤❤
Like so many comments I read (not all) I have been trying to get a grip on this stitch for a long time!! Your tutorial is the best!!! I signed up for your emails and in deed got the written instructions which are great however there is no stitch count so I can modify it!! Could you please provide. I am making a blanket at this moment and love it would like to do smaller and or bigger projects. Thanks again love it!!!
Agreed!!! She is very good at explaining her patterns!!
I've made 2 of these and planning on another 4. This is a super easy and quick blanket to make!! I don't like changing colors that much so I changed it to 6 rows of each before changing colors. Love this blanket!!
Valerie T how long did it take to complete one blanket?
Valerie T how long did it take to complete one blanket?
Thank you, you made it look so easy.
I love this tutorial. I will be making this
Mine turned out great! Thanks for the very well explained video.
+EmberTheFireWolf awesome!
I love all your work....
I love crocheting but I try to stay away from long projects but this is so cute...I may have to try it.
Hi Melanie Ham! I love this tutorial so much and have made 3 of these already in different colours. I am wondering if you are able to add a row to the top of a blanket I've already started but found the color I have been looking for and couldn't find. It has to be at the top and I don't really want to start over. Thanks!
Thank you thank you very much for your tutorial on this Chevron stitch I was thinking of making one but I didn't know how to do it but thank you thank you very much for your tutorial God bless you
thank you for showing me how to make this blanket!
oh my gosh I love ur crochet videos I make about everyone u do
Wonderful tutorial! Just finished my first granny square blanket now as soon as I get my yearn I’m going to attempt your chevron blanket. Glad your feeling better 👍
Yes this was a good one. Thanks I made one thanks
You explained it so nice that this blondie can understand. Thank You
Great video Melanie, thank you! I'd like to make this blanket wider. What are the multiples?? I"m making this for my daughter for Christmas to cover her queen size bed instead of an afghan. Once I know the multiples I can make it my own size.
Thanks for making this gorgeous blanket so EASY to follow!!
Miss you so much Mel. ❤
I love this tutorial!!! I have made several blankets!! It works out perfectly every time (as long as you keep your eight clusters on target)!! You will love it!! Each time I make them I just cannot stop looking at them, and cannot believe I made them! Would love to see another Beginner Friendly pattern from you. THANKS!!!
Didn't realize that I had already made a post two months ago. Now I have made a total of 5 using this pattern. Just saw your candy twist tutorial gonna try this next!
To Melanie, Thank you for sharing this tutorial! I love this blanket so very much I have made 10 maybe more. It is so simple and easy.
I cant seem to understand what mm the P hook is. Is it 10 mm or 15mm?
@@nicolecollins4226 it’s an 11.5
hey melanie! i really enjoyed this video, and it helped me to make an awesome blanket! do you think you could make a video on how to do a fan tail stitch??
Love this blanket !
Hi Melanie! Thank you so much for the tutorial, I made a beautiful blanket following this. I'm going to make another as a Mother's Day gift and I was wondering if making each color about 4 rows thick rather than two would work . Would that affect the turnout?
Now I am making a 3rd one but this time I’m using the Bernat Home Decor yarn with a 8mm hook. Just making a little lap blanket. This is the nicest chevron pattern. Thanks again 😊
I will start a new chain and see how the first row turns out and let u know Melanie. I started a different pattern and am n the 3/4 of the way complete with the afghan. Thanks for your question and reply I will get back to u soon.
Love this blanket and pattern. I am going to make this one but I wanted to know if you have a crochet instruction for a chevron pattern blanket with smaller yarn?
I used this pattern to make a lapghan using a 5.5mm and chaining 116. It's turning out beautiful!
I'm using a worsted weight.
Learning from Melanie is how I learned to crochet a few years ago!! I love watching still and learning new things! Now while I watch I pray for your husband and kids and family and try to rejoice knowing you’re in heaven with Jesus!! So hard but so thankful for you and your light and love!! ❤️
Hi Melanie! Thanks so much for teaching me to crochet! Been at it for a couple years and have made many gifts. I wondering if doubling yarn would work with this rather than using a chunky yarn. What do you think?
Finally able to comment! Great blanket that I finished tonight!
It's amazing to think that this was almost exactly one year ago! Your channel keeps growing and growing! Keep up the great work!ilysm❤️❤️

If and when you have the time will you please do a video on crocheting a handkerchief to tie hair back in? My daughter and I both just love how you teach.....you truly have a gift!!!
Beautiful Blanket!
Hi Melanie, I love this video and am almost done a blanket for my daughter. I was wondering how I could go about making a solid border around the blanket? would you recommend that or would it pull the pattern out of shape? Thanks! :)
Thanks Melanie!!
I hope you are feeling better.
I would like to try this pattern next. I used a thinner yarn so I would like to chain around 180 for my desired length. What is the equation for the number of chains? 96 or 77?
omg I love that blanket x
Hi Melanie, I love your videos and your projects. I am finishing up the color block and this one is next. :) I need it to fit a queen size bed with overlap. I signed up for the instructions but I'm not sure how it happens that I get them. I really just need to know what the foundation chain math is, ie "multiples of ? plus ?" - that type of thing - or if you know what you would use for a king size that would be great -
Looooooved it! Melanie please please do a mermaid tail! Love your videos :) you were and still are my crochet teacher, thanks ;D best regards from Mexico
Hi Melanie , can you tell me how many chains I would need for a king size that drapes over sides and foot of bed ? Love your tutorials makes crocheting so fun and easy ! 😀
that looks GREAT Melanie!!! Not eas y(to me), but super good looking!
How long should my base chain be if i want to make it buigger
Hey Melanie,i love your tutorial, learn very much things from You sorry my english
I just started crocheting a blanket with this type of yarn this morning!! It's so yummy!!
Thanks so much I love the Idea!!!!!!!♥♡♥♡♥♡
Love this blanket. But I was wondering if you could do a shamrock blanket for St Patrick's Day.
Would you be able to do a video about how to do an edge for a blanket like that at some point? I will definitely be making this as soon as I can afford the yarn! :D
Hi Melanie, I'm working on the chevron throw right now and wanted to share with you and say thank you!also I would like to do it as a baby blanket I need it to be smaller then 77 can you help me please?
I have started this blanket with 77 and am loving it! The only problem i have is my skip 2 and dc3x are not lining up. Please Help... thank you in advance
love it!
