    Traditional Half Hexagon Motif

    Published: Oct 11, 2017 · Modified: Aug 19, 2021 by Tamara Kelly · 4 Comments

    Previously on Moogly... I shared the Traditional Hexagon Motif, which is a great jumping off point for lots of great patterns and projects.

    But the thing about hexagons is that when you put them together they leave little half-hex sized gaps around the sides. So we cut it in half! The Traditional Half Hexagon Motif is the solution to fill in those spaces and give you a nice straight edge.

    Here's how to crochet the Traditional Half Hexagon Motif!

        Hi Julie! The written instructions are almost always exactly the same for left and right handed - for this sort of thing, they definitely would be the same. 🙂

        Hi Helen! That's another place you can add your own personal touch! Joining hexes is the same as joining squares - you can go tight or loose, depending on the look you're going for. Here are some ideas: https://www.mooglyblog.com/join-crochet-squares/
