Crochet Be Mine Chevron Blanket
The Be Mine Chevron Blanket is the first of three new crochet baby blankets in a series.
It's a cold January and I wanted bright and fun to make myself feel warm. I love creating baby blankets the best. For whatever reason, when I started crocheting this one, I thought of those candy conversation hearts. Be Mine was always my favorite. I always wanted someone to pass me that one.
This repeating chevron can be easily sized with the multiples of 27 ch + 29. I crocheted this with Red Heart With Love because the colors are vibrant and it's squishy soft.

Thanks

When I go to the link for the Be Mine Chevron it says the video tutorial is private. Is there a way to see it?
Mikey says
Not at this time I'm sorry. I didn't realize Jeanne was working on this and I schedule the tutorials ahead of time. It is scheduled for February 14th at 2:30 pm Eastern Time. I have a rule that only 1 tutorial goes out per 24 hours and it was the soonest it could be squeezed in. I have tutorials scheduled up into April with holes in the schedule for things that suddenly come up.
Veta says
Thank you so much ?
Mikey says
My pleasure.
