Bright & Easy Meadow Blossom Crochet Hexagon

Today I’ve got a fresh new tutorial for you, and this one is a real treat with a nice little floral vibe to it —we’re making The Meadow Blossom Crochet Hexagon. It’s an easy Granny Hexagon Shape and has just 7 rounds, it makes a great project if you’re fairly new to crochet. It uses mostly basic stitches, and I’ll walk you through the petal shapes, which are made using a double crochet cluster—a simple but beautiful stitch that’s perfect for creating that floral look. So if you haven’t tried clusters before, this is a great intro!

You can find more captivating colour combinations for your squares over on my Instagram and Pinterest.
I love sharing lots of pics of my colour experiments there!
