Modern Chevron Baby Blanket | Easy Ripple Blanket | Easy Crochet Blanket Tutorial

[@tamaramartin8588]

13:48 Thank you so much! It was especially helpful to me when you pointed out that my increase should always be in the second and then the first double crochet of the “V’s”, and then I’ll know I’m still on the right track. That prevented a lot of errors as I learned. 😊😊😊

[@AmandaCrochets]

I’m so glad that helped! I know chevron patterns can be tricky, so I really wanted to point this out, so others can see exactly where to put their stitches 🧶

[@rainysenseney2927]

Thank you for this tutorial. I was able to follow it easily and am making a baby boy blanket in a varigated blue and white yarn.

Wonderful! Hope you love it!

Agreed!

[@janetmaxwell9313]

Your instructions and calming voice are very easy to follow. Just made my first ripple baby blanket in pink, linen, pink/brown variegated, off white, and green gremlin. It reminds me of succulents. Now I just need to find someone to give it to! Thanks !

[@AmandaCrochets]

[@shellyyates5537]

[@tinapeters2900]

Thanks for this tutorial. It took me several tries to get it right, but I finally did. After completing 20 rows I can now identify if I've made a mistake each time I start a peak or valley. This keeps me from tearing out an entire row by addressing the issue sooner.

[@AmandaCrochets]

You’re very welcome! I’m glad you’re finding it easier to make the chevron. Definitely one of my favorites 😊

[@cannedham3979]

I bought this pattern in your Etsy shop. Working with the pattern & tutorial I was able to recognize certain stitches to fix problems earlier & earlier. It is by far the easiest pattern I’ve tried for a Chevron afghan. The other patterns went into a box. Thank you for the easy to understand pattern and the tutorial to go along!!

[@AmandaCrochets]

I am so happy to hear that this chevron pattern was easy for you to understand. I tried to go slow and make it easy to follow along as I know chevrons can be tricky. I just made another chevron blanket (Fall Throw Blanket) that I think you will enjoy as well. That's an even easier ripple blanket! Enjoy and thanks for your support :) :)

Just finished this as my first blanket project! (Typically I do amigurumi) I’ve attempted blankets before but never finished them. I got this one finished in about 3 weeks and made it a 40x40ish square. I did 7 thicker sections with 6 rows and did a thinner section between each thick sections with 3 rows. And added 13 chains in the beginning. It’s lovely and I can’t wait to gift it at a baby shower in February with a matching amigurumi dinosaur!

[@funoverload.4600]

This is so beautiful. I am making this blanket. It’s my first blanket. All cream. After many rows I went back and watch the tutorial again and I hadn’t been putting the two double crochets at the end of the row so my was wavy so I removed some rows. Is that why it was wider and wavy ? I’m an advanced beginner.

[@AmandaCrochets]

Thank you! Yes, chevrons can be tricky at first. It’s super important to make sure your stitches are in the proper places, otherwise your blanket will come out wavy. It’s possible you were adding extra stitches or maybe your tension was lose in some spots and tighter in others. This will even out over time. Keep at it! 😊

[@lindaevans9682]

can I make throw blanket instead of baby blanket?

[@AmandaCrochets]

Yes, of course!

[@OliviaBowman-f9k]

Love this pattern but how is the best way to finish it? And then do you just tuck in the strings at the end?

[@AmandaCrochets]

To finish the blanket, you will weave in your ends with a tapestry needle. I usually go back and forth a few times to really secure it. Then I cut off the the yarn and you’re good to go.

[@empressnkzoo]

My advice. I used markers at every 12 stitches. I used the same color markers. On the last section, I use a different color marker. So I know where I am when I am working along. I also used a different color for the marker on the last plus 3. So i where to start the rows. I know it seems like alot to do. But it doesn't take long. And if there is a mis-count, I can count the sections. Instead of hundreds of stitches.

[@AmandaCrochets]

That’s an excellent idea to help beginners!

[@empressnkzoo]

@@AmandaCrochets I am doing crochet a few years. I have marked my stitches after I kept loosing stitches. But with this pattern the count is so important! I do the same for my corner to corner too. I'm glad this tip will help others.

[@AmandaCrochets]

@@empressnkzoo I think it'll be very helpful! Thanks for sharing :)

[@kristy4034]

Can you tell me how many chains i need to so for a crib size baby blanket

[@AmandaCrochets]

It's hard to say, but you can try making the same amount of chains I did in this tutorial or add a few extra if needed. If you make the first row, that will be a good indicator if your blanket is the right size or needs to be a little bigger/smaller. I hope that helps!

[@jackiekelly7002]

Is it ALWAYS 2 dbl at the end of a row in the chain 3?

[@AmandaCrochets]

The chain 3 counts as your first dbl crochet, so you will only make 1 dbl crochet.

[@Silverduck101]

Is it okay for the early stages of the blanket to not sit flat but instead be kind of wavy?

[@AmandaCrochets]

If your blanket is wavy, it’s possible your tension is too tight or you’re adding too many stitches. I would try going up a hook size to see if that helps. 😊

[@joannebachynski5431]

Hi Amanda I am re learning how to crochet. I love your videos. I am wondering how many repeats of the pattern did you get to the end of the row? So that I can understand the pattern better as I am trying to write the pattern out to help me understand the process better. Thank you for your help. Joanne Bachynski

[@AmandaCrochets]

Hi Joanne, for my blanket I did 12x8=96 and added 3 more chains for a total of 99.

[@therebeccalacy]

Wonder how this would work in Caron Simply Soft yarn, and how many would I need.

[@AmandaCrochets]

I’m sure this would look beautiful in Caron Simply Soft yarn! You may need 1 additional skein of the two colors to complete this and 1 skein of the white.

[@JM-mx3cx]

I have finished the first six rows and notice the blanket so far does not lay quite flat. It has a slight ripple. Do you think this could be from the starting chain stitches being somewhat tighter than the following rows? Or something else? This is such a good tutorial - thank you!

[@AmandaCrochets]

Yes, it’s possible that your tension is a little tighter. For the starting chain, you can always go up a hook size to make it a little more loose. Hopefully that does the trick 😉

[@laurasscorpio4061]

Does ut make a difference on the turns if you chain 3 and turn OR turn and then chain 3? I fo bd it hard to see where my last stitch of the row is supposed to be and sometimes end up doing it I the chain 🙁

[@AmandaCrochets]

I don’t think it matters. I’ve seen it done both ways. I like to chain before I turn my work. You can put stitch markers in the very first and very last stitch of each row to help keep your ends straight and know where to insert your hook.

[@alexhudson97]

Do you have a video showing how to add a border to the straight sides?

[@AmandaCrochets]

No sorry I don’t. I just eyeball the stitches and try and make them as even as possible.

[@dianaboldrini3462]

I have finished a blanket and absolutely love it!! But how do I close the ends where I have changed colors? First blanket I do and I don’t know enough to find the solution on my own :).

[@AmandaCrochets]

When you change colors, you want to weave in the ends. To do so, you will get a tapestry needle and go in between the stitches of the same color (white yarn with white, blue with blue, etc.). That way your yarn end doesn't show in your finished item. I usually go back and forth a few times to really secure the ends. I hope that helps!

[@tobytriplett9328]

Thank you so much, it looks like a great pattern! I’m only on row 4 or so right now, but I have a pretty important question: if we’re increasing each row, won’t it be shaped like a cone in the end? At first, I only had 4 stitches from end to the first 2x dc into one st, but on row 4 I’ve got 8 stitches between the end and the first 2xdc. Help!

[@AmandaCrochets]

It seems like you’re increasing too many stitches. For each row you will be working the two decrease stitches on top of the decreases from the previous row. The same thing with the increases. They should stack on top of one another. You should only have 3 stitches in between your increases and decreases.

I had used a base 22 for some reason, rather than 24. After I fixed that, everything fell into place. I don’t know where I got 22! Lol

Loved your tutorial and I’m starting it tomorrow but I have a quick question how do you end the last row to make it look square ??

I have a separate video on how to straighten the edges. You can check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/naOtfYlsrdqYnZo

I ended with the 2 decreases on row 1 instead of the 3 double crochet. For the last chain should I still increase? I'm using light 3 yarn and chained 123

It looks like you might have missed a stitch or two along the way. I would start over to make sure you get the count correct. Otherwise your blanket will be out of balance.

Hi!!! I love your tutorial... working on a blanket now. But i have a question. After you've done the first row... can you not just do double crochet in every sritch after that? Just curious 🤔 👀

Hello! If you do not have the decrease sections and increase sections your pattern will not come out right.
