I just love Hexagons they are my favourite shape a pain to join
together but always worth the effort. I really enjoyed making this
Hexagon lap-rug
it seems so long ago now and I'm always on the lookout for a new
Hexagon that will inspire me to make another. Here are my collection
of Hexagons from Beyond the square. I have made these with Dk cotton and a 3.5mm hook
Motif #30 |
Motif #31 |
There is a lot of work in this motif but it is such fun to do. I like the real life version better than the one in the book as it's lovely to feel the texture.
Motif #32 |
I picked this one without realising that it was the reverse of Motif #31, how clever is that a two sided motif, I love it ! I can't decide which side I like the most but I have decided to make some pot holders with it, as others doing this challenge have noted it is ideal for that purpose because of it's thick texture.
Motif #33 |
Another pretty little motif ideal for a large project.
Motif #36 |
This one is like a little star depending on the colours you use it could be a lovely flower motif too, nice made up as a shawl or scarf.
Motif #38 |
There was quite a bit of work involved with this one, it's one of the larger motifs looking quite regal with it's 6 crowns.
Motif #42 |
A big lacy flower I just had to show you this one on two colour backgrounds, I think it looks so pretty with the blue background. it's quite a big motif and I have to say this one does excite me, I can see it in a large project, not quite sure as what yet but inspiration will come I'm sure.
Progress 32 out of 100
Triangles next :)

What lovely hexagons, it really makes me want to crochet but I'm more of a knitter, it would be great to do both so well.
