This view of Saturn's northern hexagon and polar vortex is made from images captured by Cassini on June 25, 2013. This is an approximate natural-color view (w/enhanced contrast) made from wide-angle camera images Cassini captured in visible light filters from a distance of about 635,000 km (394,000 miles).

From equilateral triangle.

This tessellation differs from most other designs by having lower rotational symmetry: only 180° rather than the 60° typical for tessellations based on a hex grid. This is more of a technique than a single pattern since each rhombus row can be substituted for a hexagon row. One way of looking at it is saying that a vertex of a rhombus can be extended into an edge, transforming the rhombus into a hexagon. In this particular work, central part is the more regular 1-1 (hexagons-rhombi) row arrangement while at the edges the 1-2 (1 row of hexagons followed by two rows of rhombi) pattern appears.

There are many ways of arranging the pleats on the back side. Here, I chose a fairly symmetric one which results in a nice layering on the front but also produces an interesting garland-like pattern on the back where there are two adjacent rows of rhombi (see the close-up image of back side — coming up on social media soon, or go to the model’s home page at origami.kosmulski.org/models/hexagons-and-rhombi to view it now).

My hex blanket in progress. I'm making these groups of 7 hexagons before joining them all together.

Blue Star

Book: Origami Foldings Twisted p. 42/3

Red Star

Model: Tomoko Fuse

Book: Hana no Kazari Oirgami p. 116/7

This was the rest of the paper I cutted from my roll of sandwich paper for the pinkish Stella Errare. So I folded these two little stars.

Note to mayself: I really should make a list of the dimensions of Carmen's stencils, instead of measuring each and every time I post something.

how to build an hexagonal tube from a few common bricks

Hey everyone! I have been wanting to build a spaceship for a while now, so here it is!

This is not a SHIP/SHIP fail, since I actually started it during the Summer Joust in June,but wasn't able to finish it until recently, to "fill up" some space at the Brick66 expo in Banyuls-sur-Mer. I must say that I think it turned out pretty well, and I was surprised at how good the picture looks with the editing. Building this gave me a few sci-fi themed ideas, so I expect a few more swooshing MOCs are to come!

Feedback wanted as usual, especially from those who have more experience than me in building spaceships (don't worry, it's not difficult)!

Hexagons

Made this flower hexagon inspired by the african pattern by Elizabeth Cat. Love it. Have not decided what to make with it though. Maybe a cardigan or jacket...?

Project made from the book 'Patchwork Please!'

Read about this on my blog, in addition to my review of the book!

blogged here

After a long break I've started working on hexagons again. Guess I should count how many I have...

Blogged: karamatdesigns.blogspot.com

After much deliberation, I have written a pattern/tutorial for making hexagons. As its my own pattern, I'm hopefully not treading on anyones toes by sharing it.

You can read about it on my blog, I've listed it as a separate page in my sidebar on the left hand side (right down at the bottom) so it'll be easy to reference.

Hope this helps to spread the Hexagon Love :: Happy Hooking!

I felt ready to take my crochet skills beyond simple squares, so I followed the wonderful hexagon tutorial on Lucy's (Attic24) blog. I can highly recommend her tutorial, it made it so easy to learn how to do these.

I originally had plans for this to be a blanket, but I'm using 4ply baby wool and the hexagons are quite tiny! I'm thinking it may become a cushion instead.

There's a guy who lives in here and he is awesome. He sang to me a bit and then told me he had to get to work. I never did see him and wonder just type of work he was off to do.

Clear hexagonal crystal glass inside a blue plastic glass with water in both to transmit light. The water in the glass is actually clear.The larger blue glass sat on top of a small circular liqueur glass to allow light to be transmitted from below.

Pattern from Lucy at Attic 24. Done in 4ply wool.

I joined them together later, not as I went. I am addicted to Hexagons now. Each one is unique.

...whenever I feel a little depressed, I make hexagons.

This is the pattern of the little hexagon pouch. You also can see the little tin I used before. Everything in there except for the yarn is now in my little hexpouch! :D

I have recently seen so many wonderful and inspiring hexagon quilts here that I wanted to try making those little hexagons, too. It was a lot of fun, but I think I'm not using those for a quilt just yet. :)
