Crochet Vintage Hexies Tutorial 🥰 | Made by Anita

[@HookedbyRobin]

Looking for the half hexagon? That video is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnrdhXV-fsaHo5o 😀

[@nz-nz]

Another great tutorial! Gorgeous pattern! I like the way you don’t go off camera… even though you speed up, you’re still visible (so we know where exactly you are up to!!!). …and yes ugh 🥹 those ends!!!

[@HookedbyRobin]

😂 I can't hide! 🖐🧶

[@naomiobrien3136]

This has to be the prettiest blanket I've ever seen

[@HookedbyRobin]

Thank you so much Naomi! 🤗

[@debbiesmith8083]

I agree completely.

[@sisterpamop]

This is so pretty. It looks like a garden.

[@HookedbyRobin]

It does doesn't it! 😍🌸🏵

[@katydidiy]

My second comment, hope I'm not boring anybody. Most of my small bits of yarn is medium 4 weight and lots of different makers. So I didn't want to go that route. However, I did discover 2 sets of 3 weight bon bons of 20 different colors. I also found 2 balls of 3 wt in cream and a ball in a medium green and they are quite similar and I can always change hook sizes if necessary to make the yarn compatible. You can get lucky when you decide it's time to get organized! Can't wait to get started. Thanks Anita AND Robin😍 Ps: I even found a ball of 3 wt pink variegated for the centers.

[@vernetawerkmeister6269]

Ms. Robin, thank you for your explicit directions on how to join blocks. I have so many saved and refer to them as needed. You are amazing! Thank you! Blessings to you always. 😊

[@HookedbyRobin]

Awh, thank you so much!🥰🤗

[@shobha2984]

Nice hexogon! Joining the hexogons, we can make a ball shape & stuff fiber in it to make soft toy ball.

I love this. I've just completed a cotton bed throw and it took 6 months with my arthritic fingers. I was wondering what to do next and I kinda decided against another blanket but now I'm thinking I need to do this and you're so clear with instructions

[@HookedbyRobin]

Oh Bev I feel your pain - I have arthritis in my finger joints which flares up something chronic in the cold! I had to stop doing craft fairs, partially due to my RSI but also as in the winter, standing outside behind my stall my finger joints would swell up, go stiff and my chilblains on my finger tips would be so painful! 😬

[@judyshather9926]

I made a ripple afhghan for my granddaughter out of cotton yarn; it is a bit more challenging than acrylic, but has a nice weight to it

[@adiayarnarts2567]

I bought Vive arthritis gloves from Amazon and they help a lot with the pain.

[@shirleylindsay5586]

@@HookedbyRobin I have chilblains on my feet so I know what you go thru in the cold. Excruciating. Pain. I want to make this tho. It's so beautiful.

[@candygrubisic]

Cute. The colors almost make it that much more vintage looking.

[@HookedbyRobin]

They do! 🥰🧶

[@annmargaret6992]

Dear Lass, I love this. I am in my late 90s and I love the color. Crochet helps the bones in my hands. I have know one to give it to, so I will give to my visiting nurse Kelley. You are so clear abt your teaching and I can keep up, thank you so. Ann

[@HookedbyRobin]

You are very welcome Ann and I am glad you enjoyed the video and crochet.🤗😃

[@kateryan190]

This is gorgeous & so reminiscent of a hex granny Afghan my grandmother made way back in the ‘40s. That blanket kept me nice & toasty many times over the years. And her colors were beautiful & soft just like yours are. ❤ this will have to be my next blanket project. Thank you so much for this video!

You’re so welcome Kate, I’m so pleased you like it and that Afghan sounds wonderful.🥰🧶

[@kimberlyd9049]

This is such a pretty piece of needlework! I had no idea joining as you go could be so easy. I’m primarily a knitter, but love the look of these hexies, which would be a laborious project in knitting, but was uncertain whether I’d be able to finish such a project. I DO believe I’m going yarn shopping tomorrow. Thank you!

[@barbsdee3831]

I like how you attach your new colour. I’ve always put the slip not on the hook first but seeing your way of putting your hook through the work then attaching the yarn puts the knot on the correct side thank you 🙏🏻. this is a lovely project 😘🇬🇧

[@HookedbyRobin]

You’re welcome Barbs, I’m glad it helps.😃🧶

[@barbaracabrera207]

I love this. The colors really make this look vintage!!! Great job!!! Thx for video. Austin,TX USA

[@HookedbyRobin]

It's a gorgeous colour pallet isn't it! 😍

[@RetroRegan]

Thank you so much. I've wanted to do a patchwork blanket for my bed since I started my crochet journey five years ago. So far hats and baby blankets are as adventurous as I've got as I've always been put off the joining up. I've not even attempted a granny square patchwork for that reason. But I have been inspired to start my longed for blanket after watching your video. I've never seen it explained so simply and so well. I've just put an order in for my yarn. And I love the way you join your new colour yarn, even that is simpler than I have been doing. Can't wait to get started.

[@HookedbyRobin]

I am so pleased that this video and Anita’s tutorial inspired you to start your own blanket, it is so lovely to make! 😃🧶

Hi from down under. Wow! Thank you. I'm learning how to crochet at 68 years old. I followed your video and have finished my 2nd square! It looks nearly perfect. That's due to your wonderful instructions and very clear and close filming. It's such a pretty pattern and keeping the centre in pinks and green ties it all together so we can really splash out on the colour. I'll update you when the blanket is done. Only about 100 hexies to go! 👍

[@HookedbyRobin]
