Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start with a Magic Ring:
To create a magic ring, wrap the yarn around your fingers to form a loop. Insert your hook into the loop, yarn over, and pull through to create a slip knot.
- Round 1:
Chain 1 (Ch 1) to secure the magic ring. Work 12 single crochets (sc) into the ring. To close the round, join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the first single crochet.
- Round 2:
Chain 1 (Ch 1). Now, *work 1 single crochet (sc), chain 3 (ch 3), skip the next single crochet (sc)*. Repeat from * to * around. Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the first single crochet.
- Round 3:
Slip stitch (sl st) into the first chain-3 space. Chain 1 (Ch 1). Now, *work 12 puff stitches into the chain-3 space, then single crochet in the next single crochet*. Repeat from * to * around. Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the first puff stitch.
- Round 4:
Slip stitch (sl st) into the first puff stitch. Chain 1 (Ch 1). Now, *work 1 single crochet (sc) in each puff stitch, chain 3 (ch 3), skip the next single crochet (sc)*. Repeat from * to * around. Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the first single crochet.
- Finish the Hexagon:
Fasten off your yarn and weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle.
- Make Multiple Hexagons:
Repeat the above steps to create multiple hexagons. Aim for at least 20-30 hexagons to achieve a nice blanket size.
- Join the Hexagons:
Using a whip stitch or your preferred joining method, connect the hexagons together to form the blanket. Ensure the motifs align properly for a seamless look.
- Add a Border (Optional):
If desired, add a border by working single crochets (sc) evenly around the edge of the blanket. This will give your blanket a finished and polished appearance.
Now you have your very own Elegant Sunburst Crochet Hexagon Blanket! Enjoy the cozy warmth and beautiful texture it brings to your home.
