There is something magically about the summer holidays. Morning
sunshine, lazy afternoons, the feeling that you have all the time in the
world. Enter the hexagon blanket. I have been loving the look of
crochet hexagons for quite some time, yet they always appeared in the
two hard bag. Until, the summer holidays came along and I stumbled upon
the easiest tutorial I had seen for them yet. One thing led to another, and before I knew it I hard started to make my own hexagon blanket!
I've been using a similar kind of join as you go technique that I used here. It's not perfect. I'm not really convienced that I like how they join together. But at the moment, I don't want to learn a new joining stitch, as I would never finish the blanket if I didn't join them as I went along.
I am embracing the perfectly imperfect hexagon blanket. I am loving the look the solid colours give when joined together. I love that I have a new go to whenever project.
