How to Join Crocheted Hexagons
Crocheted, or granny square, hexagons are a fast crochet technique that is useful for making all sorts of crocheted crafts such as blankets, sweaters or even backpacks. The key to joining crochet hexagons is only having one hexagon complete, and the rest only two-thirds complete. The hexagons are joined together along that third row. If you are creating an entire blanket with the hexagons, you’ll need to have all the hexagons two-thirds complete and laid out for proper fastening. This means you'll want to complete rows one and two of the hexagons, but leave row three undone for joining.
