I love geometric shapes, and once you learn the Basic Granny Square pattern this Crochet Hexagon Pattern will be a super easy yet an interesting project for you to try! All you need to do is make 6 corners instead of 4 and today I will walk you through each step with photos!
Crochet Hexagon Pattern Tutorial:
Here are a few helpful guides if you are an absolute beginner that teach you How To Make A Slip Knot, How To Start A Crochet Chain, and How To Double Crochet before you start this pattern.
For this Simple Crochet Hexagon Pattern, we just need to create 2 extra corners compared to a square, and it’s not that difficult at all!
You can make this Simple Crochet Hexagon Pattern in one solid color or change colors as desired.
Step 1: Ch 4. Insert hook into the first chain and close with a slip stitch to form a loop.
Step 2: Ch 2 (consider this as a dc), 11 dc into center loop, close round by slip stitching into the top of the beginning ch2. Cut yarn and change color.
Steps 3 + 4: Join new color yarn into top of any dc from below circle. Ch 2, 1dc into same space, ch1, *2dc into each dc of the previous round, ch1*, close round by slip stitching into the top of the beginning ch2. Cut yarn and change color.
The Ch2 will create the corner
Steps 5 + 6: Join new yarn into any ch1 space below. Ch2, 1dc into same ch1 space as join, ch 2, 2 dc into same space, ch1 (this makes the first corner of our hexagon) 2dc into ch1 space below, ch1. Then repeat 5 times *2dc, ch2, 2dc into next ch1 space below, ch1, (2dc, ch1) into next ch 1 space below*- close round by slip stitching into the top of the beginning ch2
Step 7 + 8: Ch2, 1dc into ch2 space below, ch 2, 2 dc into same space, ch1 (this makes the first corner of our hexagon) *(2dc into ch1 space below, ch1)* twice. Then repeat 5 times *2dc, ch2, 2dc into next ch1 space below, ch1, (2dc, ch1) into next ch 1 space below, (2dc, ch1) into next ch 1 space below*- close round by slip stitching into the top of the beginning ch2

I love how perfect this simple crochet hexagon pattern turns out! I can see myself making a bunch of these easily! I’ve used a soft cotton yarn here so these would make easy scrubbies too.
A Hexagon is a unique shape that mimics a bee hive and can be joined to create interesting blankets or sweaters. I love the soft peach color scheme of this hexagon and can easily see many of them being joined into something special.
Supplies I’ve used:
The yarn I’ve used here is Lily Sugar n’ Cream– in colors Soft Ecru, Tea Rose, JuteTangerine. The crochet hook I’m using is the H8 5mm size from this Clover Amour Crochet Hook Set
