Crochet hexagon tutorial

the crochet hexagon tutorial

this hexagon consists of 6 rounds

of course you can stop at practically any round

if the hexagon has reached the size you had in mind

this hexagon is based on Bunny Mummy Jacquie's mini hexagon pattern

she is the sweetest lady to give me permission to show you the pattern described below

that is based on her great tutorial

~ thank you so much again Jacquie ~

3. close loop of chainstitches by instering hook in fist stitch, yarn over, pull through

4. round 1 finished

17. repeat stitch as described image 16

18. chain 2 (this is your first hexagon-corner)
