Hexagon Granny

05090001crochet

Hi! Happy to join in here. I am a mamma of 5 homeschooled, craft-loving, creative children. I always have too many projects going on, but was delighted to see a new crochet-along getting started.

I've begun a hexagon granny, from the cover of the Blue Ribbon Afghans from America's State Fairs: 40 Prize-Winning Crocheted Designs book. I am quite sure this pattern could be found elsewhere also, since most of the patterns in the book I have found on the internet.

It's a fun project so far.

Good luck everyone, and God Bless!

  1. The colours in this project are just amazing! I would like to be brave enough to try such colour combinations.
    I also just visited your blog and I must say your family looks wonderful. I love the photos of the kids playroom, so good to see wooden toys being played with!

  2. Oh, thank you!

    There is no theme with the color here -- this is honestly just what I had on hand. A bit of this and a bit of that. So, no bravery required, just a whole lot of non-matching yarn! :-)

    Thanks for visiting my blog.

  6. How pretty! My mother taught me to crochet when I was a child, but I have forgotten most of it. Can't wait to try making hexagons!
