Step-by-Step Instructions

Hexagon Pattern

1. Start with a Magic Ring: Create a magic ring by wrapping the yarn around your fingers and pulling a loop through. This will be the center of your hexagon.
2. Round 1: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet), then work 11 double crochets (dc) into the magic ring. Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the top of the chain 3. You should have a total of 12 double crochets.
3. Round 2: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch, then work 2 double crochets in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the chain 3. You should have a total of 24 double crochets.
4. Round 3: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch, then double crochet in the next stitch. *Work 2 double crochets in the next stitch, then double crochet in the next stitch; repeat from * around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the chain 3. You should have a total of 36 double crochets.
5. Round 4: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch, then double crochet in the next 2 stitches. *Work 2 double crochets in the next stitch, then double crochet in the next 2 stitches; repeat from * around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the chain 3. You should have a total of 48 double crochets.
6. Finish the Hexagon: Fasten off your yarn and weave in the ends using a yarn needle.

Assembly

1. Arrange Hexagons: Lay out your hexagons in a pleasing color pattern. Feel free to experiment with different arrangements until you find one that you love.
2. Join Hexagons: Use a whip stitch or slip stitch method to join the hexagons together. Make sure to work through the back loops only to create a flat seam. This will help maintain the integrity of the hexagon shape.
3. Add a Border: Once all hexagons are joined, create a border by working a round of single crochet around the entire blanket. This will frame the colorful hexagons beautifully.
4. Final Touches: Fasten off your yarn and weave in all ends to ensure a neat finish.

Congratulations! You have now completed your Cozy Hexagon Blanket. Enjoy the warmth and charm it brings to your home!
