Ornament Granny Hexagon Pattern
I know… it’s November, but I am so excited for the holidays this year I couldn’t help but start designing holiday patterns! We are kicking off the holiday patterns with this adorable granny hexagon pattern with an ornament on it! I love this pattern because there are SO MANY POSSIBILITIES! You can combine any three colors you want for a festive look that is entirely custom to you! The images below are just a few examples.
Imagine all of the garments and other things that you can make with this simple building block! Scarves, bags, sweaters, etc. the possibilities are endless! I think I’m going to use this pattern to make the cutest “ugly’ Christmas sweater for all upcoming festivities
Happy holidays & happy crocheting <3
