Bobbie S. contacted me via Facebook and said: “Hello I’m making the rainbow chevron baby blanket but you don’t say in your video how to determine how many chains to make for the side of the borders. my blanket measures 37 long.”
I replied: “Hi Bobbie! They are the same length as the Rainbow Chevrons that you made for the main baby blanket. 🙂”
She replied: “No that doesn’t work they aren’t long enough.”
I thought this was weird because I just had someone make one of these for a charity donation.
I went back to review the multiples for this blanket, and I understood the confusion. The chevrons are deep and long, and if you are making a differently sized blanket, it could be difficult finding out what the multiple is for this blanket. For those that are making it, I mapped out the stitches for you so you can see the multiples for a larger blanket.
