The hexagon blanket continues to grow. I still need to add to the width but I've established the top and the right side edges. As you can see, the quality of the pictures has greatly improved. I've got my talented daughter, the photog, to take care of the glamour shots for me.
Hexagonal box... Purple top folded from an 8.5 inch wide hexagon gridded in 16ths... Yellow bottom folded from an 8.5 inch square divided in 7ths... It's amazing how it works out that 1/8 * 2 / root(3) is slightly larger than 1/7, thus making the top fit the bottom snugly...
The overlap section between the top and bottom is actually an anti-prism, which means the lid actually holds quite well, and does not fall off even if turned upside-down and shaken with objects inside...
The top is a result of some of the playing around I did on the yellow sheet with the offset double-pleats... It didn't look too good tessellated, but I realized the sides could be wrapped down and turned into a box-top...
Pattern - Hexagon Wheels from "Heirloom Afghans to Knit & Crochet" by Janet Leinhauser & Rita Weiss
Yarn - Knitpicks Wool Of The Andes (Pumpkin, Hollyberry, Evergreen, Coal, Cloud)
Started - February 2007
Finished - 22 Aug 2007
Svartifoss waterfall, Iceland
Columns like these form in a lava flow that cools very slowly, which allows it to form these hexagonal shapes.
Finished my crocheted scrappy hexagon blanket and absolutely adore it.
Ended up with using the teal Cascade 220 for 2 rounds of half double crochet around the edge.
The model is based on closed hexagon twists. To form the ring of 6 hexagons twists and make it compact, there is a combination of pleats below the hexagons (9 stacked paper layers).
EH paper and 48 division grid.
El modelo está basado en giros hexagonales cerrados. Para formar el anillo de 6 giros hexagonales y hacerlo compacto, hay una combinación de pliegues debajo del hexágono (9 capas de papel).
Papel EH y trama de 48 divisiones.
I just bought 10 colors of cotton thread and I don't know what kind of project I'll do. I started trying an hexagon, then I'll see what I can do. :d
The first hexagons... for something. Watch this space!
Thank you to the lovely Lucy at attic24 for the pattern for these <3
hexagons all laid out - now just need to sew them all together - I'm going to add AGF Pure Elements Cozumel Blue on both sides of each row and maybe as sashing on the top and bottom as well - hopefully that fabric will arrive this week !

This is the first blanket I made. I started playing with the yarn, doing spirals, and I finished making a lot of this strange hexagons... It's not my favourite one, but I'm very fond of it!!!
Esta es la primera manta que hice. Empecé jugando con los hilos y haciendo espirales, y terminé haciendo un montón de hexágonos raros!!! No es que sea mi preferida... pero le tengo mucho cariño!!!
I may have finished these last month because I thought the deadline was early May! I was going to make a couple of the purple-and-turquoise ones for me, but I got kind of burnt out on crochet.
The 125 cc 2 stroke engine makes it remarkably fast in the city; it's the same engine as is used in the Gilera Runner.
Because it was surprisingly fun riding a big scooter i traded the Hexagon after owning it for 2½ yrs in for a brand new Burgman 400.
and it has also nice backlit :)

with the help of Joel Cooper's tutorial & also using ideas from praise pratajev's tutorial...
only 32 grid but so many hexagons, it took me more time than I thought (this was planned to be model for 16.8 but honestly I finished it only today...)

So, for my second block for the Neptune Bee this month, I'm attempting 2" hexagons by machine. Kind of thinking the hand sewing is the way to go after this experiment. I used this tutorial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQG0V42O0fI

This granny sphere is still a work in progress
due to not begin able to stiffen it hard enough.
I have given it 5 heavy coats of Aquadhere and water mix and it still losses it's starch when it sits on anything or if it is touched too much...
What to do...
I can only think of coating it all with varnish but I think that would look tacky...
The above one still has the balloon in it and was before I started to paint it with the Aquadhere...
