PATTERN TESTING PHASE! :)
Materials: I used worsted weight yarn and an I hook but any weight yarn with appropriate hook will work.
Size: 7 1/2 inches from side to side
One hexagon needs about 42 yards
Stitches used:
(Beginning cluster) ch 3, yo, insert hook in ring, yo (3 loops left on hook)
yo bring through 2 loops on hook (2 loops left on hook)
yo, insert hook in ring, yo,(4 loops left on hook)
yo bring through 2 loops on hook (3 loops left on hook)
yo bring through last 3 loops on hook. Beg. cluster made.
(cluster) yo, insert hook in ring, yo (3 loops left on hook)
yo bring through 2 loops (2 loops left on hook)
yo, insert hook in ring, yo,(4 loops left on hook)
yo bring through 2 loops on hook (3 loops left on hook)
yo,, insert hook in ring, yo (5 loops on hook)
yo, bring through 2 loops on hook (4 loops on hook)
yo bring through last 4 loops on hook. Cluster Made
Hexagon
Ch 5, sl st into first ch to make ring
Rnd 1. Beg. cluster, ch 3, *Cluster, ch 3* repeat from * to * 5 more times, sl st into beg. cluster. (6 clusters)
Rnd 2. Sl st into next ch 3 sp, beg. cluster, ch 2, cluster, ch 2 in same ch space, *cluster, ch 2, cluster ch 2* in next ch space and in each ch space around, sl st into to of beg. cluster. (12 clusters)
Rnd 3. sl st into next ch 2 space, beg. cluster, ch 2, cluster, ch 2, in same ch 2 space, in next ch space, *cluster, ch 2, next ch space cluster, ch 2, cluster, ch 2*, repeat from * to * all the way around and sl st into top of beg. cluster (18 clusters)
Rnd 4. sl st into next ch space, beg *cluster, ch 2, cluster, ch 2 in same ch space, cluster, ch 2, in next 2 ch spaces*. Repeat from * to * around, sl st into top of beg. cluster (24 clusters)
Rnd 5. sl st into next ch space, beg *cluster, ch 2, cluster, ch 2 in same ch space, cluster, ch 2, in next 3 ch spaces*. Repeat from * to * around, sl st into top of beg cluster (30 clusters)
Rnd 6. ch 1, sc in same space, 2 sc, ch 1, 2 sc in next ch space (and in all corner spaces). sc in top of cluster, 2 sc in each ch space around, sl st into fist sc, bind off, weave in ends
If you would like a bigger hexagon just leave off round 6 and keep increasing until it is the size you would like. Same with a smaller hexagon, just leave off a few increase rows and skip to round 6. Possabilities are endless :)
