Free crochet hexagon wall hanging pattern

Bust your stash with Kat Goldin’s dreamcatcher-inspired crochet hexagon wall hangings! Sometimes you just need a quick and easy project for instant satisfaction and to bring some extra colour into your life. Which is why we can’t get enough of this puff stitch crochet hexagon pattern! Whip one up using just 25g of a light Aran/worsted weight yarn – ideal for those half balls left over from other projects. You can use any yarn for these crochet hexagon wall hangings, but avoid ones with too much drape, such as silk.

This free hexagon crochet pattern features fat puff stitches to add weight and structure. If your hexagon starts to curl, just add a bit of spray starch when blocking. Forage for a stick to hang your finished piece from, or for a more refined look, use a piece of copper tubing or a painted dowel instead. Now it's time to crochet! Follow our free hexagon crochet pattern and get making.
