How to Make a Double Crochet Solid Hexagon without Gaps

In my recent post, I had shared the pattern for Single Crochet Solid Hexagon. This was made only with Single Crochets. But when we make the same Hexagon with Double Crochets, the increase pattern changes. There are of course many variations to make these pretty hexagons. Today am sharing a simple easy and quick to make Pattern for Double Crochet solid Hexagon without gaps.

Hexagons are popular for making up pretty crochet blankets. But don't just stick to Blankets, these would also be great for many more variety of crochet projects right from a Crochet Bags, Rugs, Shawls or you can just use them as Crochet Coasters.




Materials Used:-
8 Ply Yarn

For this whole pattern the starting Chain 2 is not counted as a stitch. It is just to bring the yarn to a working height.
Start the next stitch in the same stitch.

12 Double Crochets in the circle.
Pull the yarn end to close the gap.

  3. Yours is the 5th hexagon pattern that I've tried; I seem to make simple errors that need frogging when I think I've finished. But with you're pattern, explanation & visuals, I have finally executed a perfect hexagon.
    Yey for me, and yeh for you.
