You’ll Love This Simple Chevron Stitch!

I love they way chevrons look in projects so much that last year I used the technique to make my Neutral Chevron Blanket. I also designed a unique dishcloth with this exact pattern too! Now back to the crochet chevron tutorial.

The Yarn for This Chevron Tutorial

I used a worsted weight yarn for my example, but if you have a different weight yarn that would work perfectly too! Just be sure to use the corresponding hook size to the weight of yarn you are using.

I would suggest trying Lion Brand Yarn Vanna’s Choice Yarn to get a result that is similar to this tutorial.

    I have the pattern pretty down. Just off on my stick at the count. I know it’s a sample that you have the tutorial on of 33. But it says add 16 more stitches at the end of what ever length you may choose. I am wondering why mine isn’t coming out and why did you only have 33 on your sample above I guess without the 16 adde stitches recommended. Can you please help? Many thanks in advance!

      Hi Cindy,

      The pattern is worked in a multiple of 17 plus an additional 16 stitches to whatever multiple of 17 you pick. So, I did a chain count of 17 plus 16 stitches for a total of 33 stitches for this example. Hope this helps. 🙂

    Hi Krista,
    I’m making your chevron ripple pattern, using 2 strands of yarn together, using a 9 mm hook, is this the right amount of chains to use 17 + 16 . Thank you

    I really love this pattern I made it for my grandson for his baby shower gift. Now I want to make a house warming gift for my great niece. I want to make it twin size. But I usually over buy for most thing. Can you tell me how to gauge the amount of yarn I should need for a twin size. Ball park figure will do. Thanks for the wonderful patterns.

    Gosh I’m in exactly the same situation. I’ve been making chevron practice swatches for 2 days now. I believe I’ve been counting diligently but still wind up with more stitches when it comes to the “SC 5 SC2TOG” at the very end. Can’t figure out where I’m slipping ‘em in!

    Hi!
    I started doing the chevron pattern and am finding that I am ending up with extra stitches at either end. Should this be happening or should I consistently have 5 extra stitches at the end of my rows?

    Doing your chevon now, I love how easy you explain the pattern. Had to start over again a few times but I’m learning fairly quickly.
    Thank-you so much for making this easy for me. Always wanted to learn to do this but never got it right.
    Would you also have an easy to understand on how to do the ripple?

    Just a suggestion to help keep it flat. Crochet through the back of the stitch. My gramma taught me this one years ago and I have just picked it up again.

    I hope I can do this as quickly as it sounds and looks. I am in the midst of starting 2 for a set of twins, (girl-boy). My main question is how many humps are good for a baby Afghan, or chains. Thanks for your help and time. Cathy from Indy.

      I would make your blanket about 36″ long so maybe try a ch 119 then add the additional 16 Ch’s to start 🙂 Have fun!!! 🙂

    Is there a good way to finish the project? Also, I’m making a blanket and for some reason the edges are all folding over, and scrunching up in the middle. It won’t lay flat. How can I fix that?
