Crochet hexagons are one of my favourite things to make. They’re quick, easy and can be used to make a ton of different projects. Make one for cute coaster or to keep under your plant pots. Make a whole bunch and stitch them together for items like table runners and placemats. Crochet a bunch to make a blanket! There are even patterns available that teach you how to turn hexagons into cardigans which is so cool and practical.
I’ve compiled a list of free crochet hexagon patterns to share with you today. There are a ton of great ideas and I’ve even included a tutorial on how to make a simple crochet hexie.

I have a fun product review to share with you today! WeCrochet have their Dots Crochet Hook Set back in stock, yay! I’ve had my eye on them in the past but always ended up missing out because they seem to sell out fast.

They’re fun and colourful, looked sturdy enough travel with in my project bag and had a few neat features that caught my attention.
So what did I think of them? Find out below…

Recently I saw on the WeCrochet Instagram account that they were offering Mystery Bags containing a stash of yarny goodness. I’m not typically one to purchase things like this because I don’t always enjoy what’s included and the idea of spending money on yarn and accessories that I might not use isn’t super appealing to me. However, one thing that did catch my attention was that WeCrochet was offering three different versions so I could choose a bag based on the yarn type which I thought was great. That way I know I’ll be getting yarn that I’ll have a good chance of using and both my money and the product won’t be wasted.
So….what mystery bag did I choose and what was inside? Continue reading below to find out…
