Crocheted Hexagons are a fun and versatile crochet motif that can be used for a variety of crochet projects. You can join them and make up Crochet blankets ,tablemats placemats Doilies and Potholders. You can use color block theme and make a colorful crocheted blanket.
But when you join crochet hexagons, you are left with uneven edges. To fill up these gaps, Crocheted Half Hexagons are the best option. You can use these half hexagons to fill the gaps between the full hexagons and create straight edges for your crochet projects. You can make these hexagons as big or small as you like. Just continue adding more rounds to increase the size and customize the size to meet your needs for your crochet project.
There are 2 different ways of making a Half Crochet Hexagon.
2. Flat Half Hexagon.
I have already shared the pattern for the Pointed Crochet Solid Half Hexagon. You can check it out here. In this post I will be sharing the pattern for the Flat Half Hexagon.
Materials Used:-
8 Ply Cotton Yarn
4 mm Crochet Hook
Notes:-
For this pattern, instead of working in circle, each Round is made by working To and Fro. So to hide the difference in these Front side and the Back side rounds, we will be making the stitches in between each of two stitches i.e. Instead of inserting your hook only on top of the stitch, yarn over and insert your hook under the whole stitch.

Lets Start....!!!
Round 1:-
Start with a Magic Circle.
Chain 2(This wont be counted as a stitch)
6 Double Crochets in the Magic Circle.
Pull the yarn end to close the gap.
This will form a semi circle.
Once you reach end, Chain 2.
Straight Edge Turning Chain:-
Usually you would Chain 2, turn and start working the next round. Here is a quick tip to have a nice straight edge .
- Insert the hook into the 1st chain from the bottom.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You should have 2 loops on the hook.
- Turn your project and insert the hook into the first stitch.(the first Double Crochet)
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 3 loops on the hook.
- Again, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You will have 2 loops on the hook.
- Lastly, yarn over and pull through 2 loops.
- This will make one Double Crochet.
(1 Double Crochet is already made while making the turning chain)
1 Double Crochet in the same stitch.(that's total 2 Double Crochets) - remember to make these stitches in between each stitch , as mentioned in the notes.
2 Double Crochets each in the remaining stitches.
Once you reach the end Chain 2 and turn your project - Use the Straight Turning Chain method mentioned in the previous round.
(1 Double Crochet is already made while making the turning chain)
1 Double Crochet each in the 2 next stitches.
3 Double Crochets in the next stitch.(Mark the middle stitch with a stitch marker. This will be the stitch where we will be making the increase in the next round)
1 Double Crochet each in the next 4 stitches.
3 Double Crochets in the next stitch.(Mark the middle stitch with a stitch marker. This will be the stitch where we will be making the increase in the next round)
1 Double Crochet each in the next 3 stitches.
Once you reach the end Chain 2 and turn your project - Use the Straight Turning Chain method.
(1 Double Crochet is already made while making the turning chain)
1 Double Crochet in each of the stitches untill the marked corner.
3 Double Crochets in the next stitch.(Mark the middle stitch with a stitch marker.
Repeat((1DC in each stitch untill the corner) 3DC in the marked stitch i.e the corner))
