My first review of this chevron crochet afghan was back in March of this year. I made that one for myself, but this one was a Christmas gift for my daughter. I must admit that I rather selfishly considered keeping this one, as I am so pleased with the color combination. But no, I did not keep it lest I wouldn’t have a handmade gift for DD. I always try to include at least one handmade item in her gifts.
The pattern is a free one from here. I used a size I crochet hook, and the following Red Heart brand worsted weight yarn colors:
- Grey Heather (3 skeins)
- Lemon (2 skeins)
- Cherry Red (1 skein)
Now doesn’t that look warm and comfy amidst all that cold snow!?

Sewing is my passion and I always have a notion to sew, but sometimes I get distracted with other crafty endeavors. I share my creative accomplishments (and sometimes failures) here on my blog. I am a licensed Martha Pullen beginning sewing instructor and serger instructor. For 5 years, I taught new owners how to use their Bernina sewing machines at my local Bernina dealer, and for 2 years I taught serger project classes at my local Baby Lock dealer. These days, my professional time is spent retailing handmade purse and bag making supplies and patterns. I also sell a small selection of fabric as well as my handmade bags and purses.

A Notion to Sew 
Very pretty. I never learned to crochet much more than a basic scarf. I'll have to try my hand at it again.

I crochet and couldn't imagine tackling an entire blanket of singles! Round of applause to you! I really like the updated look of the blue and green.
