Creating the Hexagon Granny Squares

Each hexagon is made in rounds. Start with Burgundy.

Make a magic ring.
Round 1: Ch 2 (this counts as your first dc), 11 dc into the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch-2. (12 dc total)
Round 2: Ch 2, dc in the same stitch, then *2 dc in each dc around*. Join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch-2. (24 dc total)
Round 3: Ch 2, dc in the same stitch, then *dc in the next dc, 2 dc in the next*. Repeat around. Join with a sl st. (36 dc total)
Round 4: Change to Teal. Ch 1, sc in the same stitch, then *ch 2, skip the next 2 dc, sc in the next dc*. Repeat around. Join with a sl st. (12 sc, 12 ch-2 spaces)
Round 5: Ch 2, 2 dc in the same sc, then *3 dc in each ch-2 space*. Repeat around. Join with a sl st. (72 dc total)
Round 6: Change to Yellow. Ch 1, sc in the first dc, then *ch 2, skip the next 2 dc, sc in the next*. Repeat around. Join with a sl st. (12 sc, 12 ch-2 spaces)
Round 7-10: Repeat rounds 5 and 6 using Brown and Flat Black for the final rounds. You can create more squares if desired. Each square should be approximately 8 inches across.

Join the Squares:

To create the blanket, lay out your squares in a layout that you like. Use the whip stitch or a slip stitch to join the squares together. Make sure to join each square securely.

Finishing:

Once all squares are joined, weave in any loose ends with the tapestry needle. For a finished look, block your blanket by gently stretching it into shape and pinning it down. Allow it to dry flat. This will help the stitches even out.

Enjoy your beautiful, colorful hexagon granny square blanket! Consider adding a border for an extra touch, using the same colors and stitches as you did in the squares. Happy crocheting!
