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.
