Modern Double Crochet V-stitch Chunky Blanket

"This modern double crochet v-stitch chunky blanket is a wedding gift. I have had this Caron One Pound yarn in my stash for a while now. Thought it was time to get something made with it.I have had this Caron One Pound yarn in my yarn stash it seems like forever, and I’ve been wanting to use it. However, I could never quite come up with the right idea. When I thought about using this for a wedding gift handmade blanket, all of the boxes ticked in my head and I knew what I wanted to do. Using two strands of yarn makes this a fun and chunky blanket. It also makes for a very warm blanket. I will miss having this cover me up while crocheting when it is below zero here this week. Brrrr. Very fun crochet pattern with a unique and modern look and feel for a blanket."
