HEXAGON PATTERN

I have at least a half a dozen projects going on. Since I have crochet ADD, I
decided to start another one. I love hexagons and decided to come up with my own
pattern.

Each one only takes a tiny amount of yarn, so I can use all of these little
balls

Materials
Yarn of your choice (I used worsted weight)
Size G (4mm) hook
Yarn needle to weave ends

Measurements
about 3.25 to 3.5 inches (depending on your tension)

Pattern (US terminology)

Ch 4, Join with sl st, forming a ring

Round 1: Ch 3 (counts as first dc), 11 Dc into the ring. Make sure you crochet
over the beginning tail. Join with sl st into top of first st. Pull tail tightly
to close the hole. (12 dc)

Round 2: Ch 3, dc in same st, ch 1, (2 dc in next st, ch 1) around. Join with sl
st to top of first st. (24 dc and 12 ch-1 spaces)

Round 3: Sl st over to the first ch-1 sp. Ch 3, dc in same sp, ch 3, 2 dc in
same sp. 2 dc in next ch sp. (2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc in next ch-1 sp, 2 dc in next ch
sp) around. Join with sl st. Sl st over to ch-3 space. (this will set you up to
sew hexagons together). Cut tail leaving several inches for sewing.

When sewing together, whipstitch into the back loops of the hexagon. Sew from
point to point. (This will be 10 stitches)

I like to use the tails of the work for sewing. Make sure after whipstitching
together, you weave at least 3 inches into your work to secure the ends.

Just a note: This is a really simple pattern, not complex at all, so if there is
another out there like this one or similar...it is purely coincidental.

If you have questions feel free to ask. I'll try to answer them.
Have a great weekend!

I think it is gorgeous, and I have a container of yarn just like yours, I
am thinking that may be a great way to use it up. Thank you Liz, the
pattern is beautiful.
Hugs,
Meredith

You might have already touched on this, I don't have any problems sewing
parts together, but. How do you hide the end strings,I feel like I do it
all wrong and sometimes they show their heads after some use. Love to hear
your tips and tricks. Thanks Luna

Luna,

I always take a yarn needle and weave at least 3 inches into the work going
in all directions. Make sure you don't just weave into a few stitches in a
straight line, because it will definitely work itself out with wear.

I absolutely love this pattern but am a bit confused on the round 3
pattern. Is is 2dc, ch 3, 2dc in each of the chain 1 spaces and then
followed by a single dc in each space in between? Somehow I ended up with
an octagon on my last attempt....any suggestions for this beginner (and
somewhat frustrated) crocheter?

LizNovember 30, 2013 at 5:41 PM

Yeah it sounds like something happened there. Sorry for the late reply. You
do 2 dc in between the (2dc, ch 3, 2 dc). Without seeing it, I'm not sure
how you ended with an octagon. Hope this helps.

I think I made the same mistake here on my first go around, I'm a relative
beginner and usually stick to videos - this was my first written pattern.
The 2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc makes each side of a corner. Each side in the 3rd row
had 3 groups of 2 dc's. Each corner is 2 dc, 3 ch, 2 dc. Trust the pattern,
the last side you will only make 2 sets of dc's because the 3rd one was the
first pair you did. I had to look at the pictures and then this clicked for
me. I'm almost ready to sew mine together.

dc in same sp. 2 dc in next ch sp, in terms of the 2 dc in the next ch sp,
is this one of the 12 ch1 spaces or one of the 24 dc spaces we made before
in the second row. Thanks for the pettern. please help

how many individual hexagons you made to put together a decent sized
afghan.

Wonderful pattern! I only wish I'd found this before I made my mother's

I sat right down and tried yours out as soon as I read through it, to see
if it laid down any flatter than the pattern I have. It does! Thank you for
sharing!

Kristen, I've never done this particular pattern, but I've made several
afghans with "half" squares, circles, etc. I think you'd chain 3, then only
do 5 (instead of 11) double crochet into the 1st ring, turn and just follow
the pattern but with half the stitches for the next 2 rows? I'd love to
make this but am sometimes too lazy to stitch up the pieces...lovely
pattern, though :)

Round three is just alernating in each space either ( treble, treble, three
chains, treble, treble) and in the next space (treble treble)
When you finish round two and join in up you will find you are not in one
of the ch spaces you made during round two so just slip stitch across to
there. Then chain three (this is your first tr) then follow the pattern as
follows:
space one: tr (you've already done this by doing the chain three I talked
about above), tr, three chain, tr, tr
Space two: tr tr
Space three: tr, tr, three chain, tr tr
Space four: tr, tr

Etc...
Hope that helps! Now if anyone has that elusive half hexagon pattern I'd be
very grateful!

I think I've figured out the half hexagon pattern (bare in mind I'm
canadian so I'll be writing in american terminology)

Ch 4 and join with a slip stitch
1. Ch3 and DC 6 into the circle (7 sts)
2. Ch3 and DC into same stitch, *Ch1 DC2 into next stitch* repeat until end
of row
3. Ch3 and DC into same stitch, DC 2 into next gap, in next gap *DC 2, Ch3,
DC 2*, DC 2 into next gap, in next gap *DC 2, Ch3, DC 2*, DC 2 into next
gap, lastly DC2 into last stitch of last chain from previous row.

That should make a decent half hexagon! If you have any questions let me
know!
