Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these detailed steps to create your crochet flower hexagon cardigan:

Creating the Hexagons

1. Start with a Magic Ring: Create a magic ring to begin your hexagon. This will be the center of your flower.
2. Round 1: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet), then work 11 double crochets (dc) into the magic ring. Join the round with a slip stitch (sl st) to the top of the chain-3. You should have a total of 12 dc.
3. Round 2: Chain 3, work 1 dc in the same stitch, then place 2 dc in each stitch around. Join with a sl st. You will have 24 dc at the end of this round.
4. Round 3: Chain 3, work 1 dc in the same stitch, then *chain 1, skip the next stitch, and place 2 dc in the next stitch; repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. You should have 12 groups of 2-dc.
5. Round 4: Chain 3, work 1 dc in the same stitch, then *chain 2, skip the next chain-1 space, and place 2 dc in the next dc; repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. You will have 12 groups of 2-dc with chain-2 spaces.
6. Round 5: Chain 3, work 1 dc in the same stitch, then *chain 3, skip the next chain-2 space, and place 2 dc in the next dc; repeat from * around. Join with a sl st. You will have 12 groups of 2-dc with chain-3 spaces.

Assembling the Cardigan

1. Make Multiple Hexagons: Continue making hexagons until you have enough to form the front and back panels as well as the sleeves of your cardigan.
2. Join the Hexagons: Use slip stitches to join the hexagons together to form the front and back panels. Make sure to align the motifs correctly for a seamless look.
3. Assemble the Cardigan: Once the front and back panels are joined, sew the panels together at the shoulders and sides to create the body of the cardigan. Attach the sleeves by sewing them to the armholes.
4. Add a Border: To finish your cardigan, add a simple single crochet (sc) border around the edges for a clean and polished look.
