Hexagon wheel

OK, one more shot of these beauties!

Rainbows!

Seriously, how cheerful do these look together?

I really do love colour! The problem is that I keep spotting other pretty colour combinations as I'm making my hexagons - it's difficult to stick to my original plan!

I'm using 2 cost effective, let's say, yarns for these - Robin DK and Hayfield Bonus DK. Despite negligible cost difference, the Hayfield is so much nicer to work with. I've seen a few people mention Stylecraft yarn too - I think I will have to give that one a go too with a future project.

Hexagon love

Although I have been crocheting for a while now, I have only recently discover the joy of granny squares. Even better, yesterday I made my first granny hexagon!

I impulsively bought some lively Robin DK yarn at the local craft store the other day & had the genius notion to make a hexagon Afghan.  It's not the nicest yarn to use - it's a little scratchy & splitty - but it is cheerful, so I am feeling quite chirpy making my way through these...
