I’m working on a Chevron blanket right now and the whole blanket is beginning to fold together like an accordian. I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong out of it’s supposed to be that way, but it won’t lie flat… Does that make sense? Do you know how to fix it? It’s not my gauge and I’m not holding my yarn to tight, I’ve been crocheting for years and know how to hold yarn lol.

Hi Abby, The single crochet chevron stitch is certainly one of those stitches that can easily cause tightening and pulling. If you are not too far into your project, then I would suggest frogging it and restart with a larger hook size. If you would rather not frog, then you should be able to continue as you have been and then wet block it once it’s complete. Also, if you are only a few rows in, sometimes it seems to roll up more than it would once you have several rows done (sometimes the added weight of the additional rows is all you need to flatten out the project).
