Crochet Blanket Pattern: Threaded Colors Chevron

Hey, y’all! Just wanted to drop a quick note to tell you some great news: I have decided to slowly update my older patterns in an effort to make them clearer to understand.

Scheepjes YARN 04 – Dutch Masters

Dutch Masters is this issue’s theme, so the strong, deep colors - beautiful reds, purple, blue - are cozy, warm, and inviting. In fact, my coze factor has just dramatically increased.. I think I need a cup of coffee and a blanket; give me a sec.. Okay I’m back. So my contribution to YARN 04 is on the cover in the upper right corner. It’s a blanket named “New Horizons.” I did loads of research on the works of Piet Mondrian for my piece, and did you know he did so much more than the mod red blue and yellow squares that he’s known for?

But did you know Mondrian’s earlier works include broody landscapes with muddy, emotional color? …
