Chevron Crochet Patterns

Free chevron crochet patterns: ripple blankets, zigzag afghans, chevron scarves, cushions and bags in the wave stitch that never really goes out of fashion.

The chevron is one repeating row. You increase at the peaks and decrease at the valleys, and the stitch count stays the same across the whole row, so once the first repeat makes sense you can work the rest without a pattern in front of you.

It is also the most forgiving way to use several colours. Change yarn at the start of any row and the stripes follow the waves automatically. See also blanket patterns and the stitch library.
