Hexagonal motif: crochet in 3 rounds crochet. First cast on 6 airm and close with 1 warp to the ring. The numbers indicate the Rd transitions. Crochet the airm-ring in the 1st round with tr and airm, alternately replacing the 1st tr with 3 airm. Close each round with 1 sl st and proceed to the next round with 1 sl st. Crochet the tufts M in the 2nd round and the tr in the 3rd round each around the air of the front. The Rd are completely drawn. Finish the motif after the 3rd round.
Mesh sample : 1 hexagonal motif with crochet. No. 4, 5 = about 11 cm high, 11 cm wide.
Design: Crochet two different colored hexagons. For the 1st hex, crochet the airm-ring and the 1st round in sand, the 2nd round in chestnut brown and the 3rd round in beige. Of which 121 hexes arb. For the 2nd hex, crochet the Airm-Ring and the 1st round in maroon, the 2nd round in sand and the 3rd round in beige. Of these also 121 hexes arb. For each color change, cut off the last M of the one color in the following color, so that an exact color transition always results.
Tip: When crocheting the motifs, crochet the beginning and end threads as far as possible to avoid the time-consuming sewing afterwards.
Working out: Put together all motives like a puzzle according to the scheme. The bold numbers on the outside are for the R number of hexagons. The unsupported hexagons stand for the 1st, the gray shaded hexagons for the 2nd color variant. Then crochet the motifs with Kettm in beige so that the seams are on the front, only catching the back half of the cut-offs. Sew all remaining threads on the back carefully.
