Journey of definition's

Hello, I'm back with my blanket in tow...listening to this song

I have adored making this blanket.

It was comforting, all encompassing, each stitch mindfully accomplished.

I think I may very well mourn not having this beauty of knotted V's to work on.

I'm going to take you on a little journey {whilst you munch your popcorn/maltesers/winegums/sweeties/chocolate buttons/glass of wine - delete as appropriate}

through the different definitions of what a chevron can mean/be.

So here goes

(oh yes don't forget to put your tongue in cheek before you embark on this journey)

First definition:

1. (Military) Military a badge or insignia consisting of one or more V-shaped stripes to indicate a noncommissioned rank or length of service

Yes, these are V shaped stripes

Plenty V shapes and stripes

Commissioned: For cosy couch days in

Length of service: 105 rows x 230 stitches

Second definition:

2. (History / Heraldry) Heraldry an inverted V-shaped charge on a shield, one of the earliest ordinaries found in English arms

Yes, it has been my shield, this Autumn of 2011

Something to hide behind while I continued to create my coat of arms against the freezing weather {sometimes world} 

Definition three:

3. (usually plural) a pattern of horizontal black and white V-shapes on a road sign indicating a sharp bend

No black and white, only 70's inspired retro-like colour's please. 

Yes, there have been times when it has driven me around a sharp bend!

My darling chevron blanket you are no "any V-shaped pattern", you are THE V shaped pattern :0)

{found in this divine book here}
