This chunky chevron fast knit baby blanket is so much fun with its over-sized flair. The giant chevrons will fly off your needles in this 2 row repeat pattern. Once you master this, you can chevron everything! Knit on large needles with jumbo yarn, you can finish this blanket in no time at all.
The yarn for this design was provided by Red Heart. All opinions are my own

I love this pattern and the color. Anxious to try one and hope it will be as nice as the one you have done. Thanks, Lena
This pattern is lovely. How many stitches and balls of yarn would be required to make an adult size blanket with this pattern.
You would have to do the math. Find the area of this one, then the area of the one you want, and then figure out the amount from there.
Beautiful blanket! Would love to make a larger one for a granddaughter. How would I enlarge this pattern; how many stitches would I cast on to maintain the pattern? Any help would be appreciated.
Add 24 for each extra ripple.
