I love Grandmother’s Flower Garden quilts. I would love to crochet one someday. Right now, I am crocheting a different pattern in blanket size, but that doesn’t stop the creative thinking and doing a little something else is a needed break. This is my version of crocheted hexagons, maybe I will make a runner.
Granny Hexagons
note: I prefer to use a slide ring to start my crochet, and often start new colors with whatever stitch is needed rather than a slip stitch and chain. Please use whichever methods you prefer instead.
Round 1
- Make a slide ring, in the ring:
- Ch 3 (counts as first dc), 2 dc, ch 3
- 3 dc, ch 3
- continue {3 dc, ch 3} until you have a total of 6 ch 3 spaces and 6 3dc clusters
- slpst in the top of the first ch 3
Round 2
- Attach second color with a ch 3 or dc in any ch3 space
- 2dc, ch3, 3dc
- continue on {3dc, ch 3, 3dc} in each ch 3 space
- slpst to top of first stitch or in top ch of the ch3
Round 3
- Attach in any ch3 space with dc or ch3
- dc, ch1, 2dc
- 3dc in next space between
- {2dc, ch1, 2c} in next ch3 space
- continue around, with 3dc in each space between the corners, and 2dc, ch1, 2dc in each corner. Slpst to top of beginning stitch, end off.
