Modern Chevron Afghan -free crochet pattern-

Everyone needs a beautiful chevron crochet throw blanket (aka afghan!) and here's a wonderful pattern and tutorial to get you started!  I really like the chevron pattern, it's simple to make, and you can have a lot of fun playing with color!  The best afghans that I've ever made, seem to come from scrap yarn and miscellaneously putting colors together, so I think that this may be my next project!
