Trying to create something like this in illustrator and keep hitting a wall. I want a circle with a chevron stroke. Creating a chevron pattern and applying it to a circular stroke is not working. Another thought was to make the stroke a dashed line and then slant it but having trouble with that also. I appreciate any tips!!

Let us use the new Repeat function.

create your (one) "arrow" and go to menu: Object --> Repeat --> Radial

go to menu: Object --> Repeat --> Options

set the desired values

done.

Thanks. I'm not undetstanding how to translate that example into what I'm trying to do. I'm still pretty beginner with Illustrator.

(new) Repeat function
Brush
Blend
Transform effect

will do what you want.
