How to Crochet // Solid Granny Hexagons PLUS Join as you Go

#crochettutorial #miniskeinproject
Please note that I am UK based and therefore use UK crochet terminology: a UK treble crochet is equivalent to a US double crochet.
This is a tutorial for mini solid granny hexagons, including how to join them as you go (so now sewing together!). Perfect for using up mini skeins, scraps and yarn leftovers. I am using various 4ply hand dyed sock yarn leftovers and a 3.5mm hook.
Happy crocheting!

Good morning. I appreciate how you take your time. And you explain what you're doing as you go. Thank you. ❤

[@mariselytorres8039]

Good morning from the US! Thank you for this tutorial! I’ve been waiting for this one to come out. Can’t wait to get done with my morning routine to begin this in between laundry loads! Hope you and everyone in the community is having a lovely week and bless you all!

[@emmacmakes]

You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy making it 🥰 Have a great week! 💕💕

I'm also a quilter, and hexagons are one of my favorite patterns to make. Crochet is no different! I love hexxies! Thank you for also showing the JAYG. It's very much appreciated!

[@TheKiwibirder]

Thank you. This was wonderful! I’ve always been intimidated by joining motifs and therefore mostly stick to one-piece crochet projects, but you made this easy to understand and I think I might try it. I love crocheting with fine yarns, because I think it makes a more elegant fabric. That little blanket is lovely…

[@emmacmakes]

Glad it was helpful! 🥰

[@christielamb2894]

So very pretty! I can not wait to start one of my very own. Happy stitching! ✌️💜🧶

Merci beaucoup ! Je voulais faire une jolie couverture en hexagones pour mon petit chat et je cherchais comment les assembler facilement ! Vos explications sont très claires. Enjoy !!! 🤗

[@emmacmakes]

You’re welcome! 🥰🥰

[@ladyd54]

Thank you Emma C for yet another beautiful design and video. Will there be and half hex’s on the outer edge? Do you have a video for half hex’s with this joining method? Would a half Hexi be the same height as the mini granny squares?

[@InmysparetimeCrochet]

I can’t believe I have never made one of these blankets! I have some beautiful hand-dyed yarn that would be perfect as well! I am about to start a pattern test for Kylie from Stitched up Craft so it will have to wait until I get through that 🥰

[@emmacmakes]

You will have to add it to your list for when you’ve finished your pattern test ☺️

[@InmysparetimeCrochet]

@@emmacmakes yes definitely 💕💕💕 x

[@leegifford3675]

This is great Emma! Thank you so much! Looks like it’s time to bring out some more scraps and start blanket number….5? 6?😊

[@emmacmakes]

You can never have too many blankets! 🥰🥰

[@julietaverdugo2547]

Hola descubrí tu canal hoy , me encantas tus trabajos , sería ideal poner subtítulos en español , gracias cariños desde Chile ❤️.

[@bonniestull1982]

I’m going to start using my left over sock yarn. I’m super excited but wondering how to lay it out. How to know how many on the top vs the sides. Thank you for your tutorial. I love your blanket and the thought that I can use my sock yarn. 🧶

[@littleoldlady1863]

Hi you really do a Beautiful 😍 🤩 job

[@emmacmakes]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@ndlz1]

🙏🙌🏻

[@angieroberts1277]

Great tutorial Emma. I love hexagons for some reason!. Also how many scrappy blankets is too many? Just asking for a friend 🙃

[@mariselytorres8039]

There is never too many scrappy blankets. Honestly, sometimes it’s not enough! lol yarn craft your heart out! Like my husband says “if it brings you joy and takes you to a happy place, keep on crafting to your heart’s content.” I live by that motto now.

[@emmacmakes]

I’ve been told by a good authority that you can never have too many scrappy blankets 😁☺️

[@barbbeck2939]

What yarn is it? It's so beautiful❣️ Nice easy explained, thanks 💕

[@emmacmakes]

I’m using lots of scrap 4ply handdyed yarn 🥰

[@yvonnevigil7489]

Hi Emma love all your videos. Question: when you are starting your hexi do you catch your tail of your yarn in with your work so to not have to weave it in. Thanks dear❤

[@emmacmakes]

Thank you! I don’t, I sew all of my ends in once I’m done but you could absolutely crochet over them if you preferred ☺️

[@melissanoble1621]

Looks more complicated joining as you go rather than after the hexagon is completed. So you have a video showing the joining with complete hexagons?

[@emmacmakes]

No, sorry ☺️

[@indiavenkitachalam6002]

How does a finished Afghan or Blanket look with this hexagon pattern?

[@bonniestull1982]

I’m wondering the same. How to lay it out?

[@vickiwaage6002]

I don’t have enough scraps. Are there mini skeins you can recommend. Where can I get mini skeins. Thanks.

[@emmacmakes]

Lots of yarn dyers sell them - have a look at Beehive Yarns and others ☺️

[@amystaiger]

Do you begin by joining 2 or do you need to have 3 to start joining …

[@emmacmakes]

You only need to make one full hexagon, after that you will join them as you go ☺️
