Hexagon Progess

Finally! I have a picture of a crocheted work in progress to show you! I'm working on three blankets at the moment, as well as a doily and a few other things. Why do I start so many projects at once? Oh well. Here is the hexagon blanket so far.

And no, I am not going in any particular color order. I just threw a bunch of pink, purple, brown and white yarn into my basket and am going with it! The one on the far right is actually dark brown, but the flash made it look black. There is also no blue, just a deep purple that looks blue with the flash!

December 29: Hexagon Blanket - COMPLETED

Pattern # 363:  Hexagon Blanket

This pattern from Attic 24 is amazing!  I mean seriously, how gorgeous does this blanket look.  And if you are a new crocheter, than Lucy's directions are perfect for you.  She breaks each thing down step by step with brilliant pictures, so even the daftest of people could understand!!  My goal is to make a blanket... but what colors should I use??

Updated June 27, 2013: It took me forever, but I finally finished this dang hexagon blanket! Remember when I shared the start last year? Yeah. It took me FOREVER to find the motivation to finish this bad boy. I kept putting off weaving in the ends, even though there were not too many (because I tried to weave as I went).

 It is a gorgeous blanket though. I had two friends who had girls who were supposed to get this... those kids are now one and six months. Whoops.

Updated January 2014. I gave this to a friend when she adopted her newborn daughter. It was perfect. Like it was meant for her. Here she is...
