Crochet Solid Hexagon Step By Step Tutorial
Solid Hexagon Pattern For Blankets – Easy Step By Step Photo & Video Tutorial
The solid hexagon is one of the basic shapes in crochet and just like the classic granny square, once mastered, it will allow you to create wonderful items, from blankets and home decor to bags and afghans.
There are many variations and patterns, but today I will show you how to crochet a basic solid hexagon.
I like this pattern because it’s easy and quick and I can crochet it while watching a movie without having to count stitches and rows.
In this tutorial, I will show you how to crochet a solid hexagon and how to make it as big or small as you like.
You will find step by step instructions with a written pattern and a video tutorial for those who learn better from watching.
