Introduction

The Geometric Lace crochet blanket pattern is a very simple and plain design. For this blanket, you will be making hexagon motifs and joining them as you go on the final round. Then the blanket is squared off with half hexagon motifs and a filler for the zig-zag sides. A simple lace border completes the design, perfect for a baby shower or to brighten any room. You will find yourself coming back to this pattern again and again.

Hexagon Motif

Note: Make 1 complete Hexagon Motif and continue to joining section to make remaining Hexagon Motifs.

Rnd 1 Using larger hook, MR, (beg tr, tr) – counts as a 2trcl – (ch2, 2trcl) 5 times, ch2, ss in tr. [6 2trcl, 6 sps]

Rnd 2 Beg tr in sp, (ch1, 2tr in same sp, 2tr in next sp) 6 times omitting final st, ss in beg tr. [24tr, 6 sps]

Rnds 3 and 4 Beg tr in sp, (ch1, tr in same sp, tr in all sts to next sp, tr in next sp) 6 times omitting final st, ss in beg tr. [48 tr, 6 sps]

Rnd 5 (Note: Use this instruction for the first motif only. Subsequent motifs will be joined as you go on Rnd 5.) (3dc in sp, dc in all sts to next sp) 6 times, ss in first dc, cut yarn. [66 dc]

Joining Schematic

Key:

  • Green Circle = Start/End of Rnd 5
  • Blue Circle = First corner of joining side
  • Blue Line = Joining side
  • Purple Circle = Second, third, or fourth corner of joining side
  • Red Circle = Final corner of joining side
  • H1/2/3 = Half Hexagon Motifs
  • Orange Circle = Start of Half Hexagon
  • Maroon Circle = End of Half Hexagon

Join Motifs

Note: Make 231 more Hexagon Motifs, joining them as you go on Round 5 to the completed motifs using the following instructions. Refer to the Joining Schematic for motif numbers.

Special Stitches

Join as you go Instructions

Note: As shown in Layout Schematic, the finished blanket is 15 hexagons across, making a zig-zag formation. The Joining Schematic only shows 5 hexagons across. This is for demonstration purposes only. All Hexagon Motifs will be joined in the layout as shown in the Layout Schematic.

Motif 1 Work complete, without any joining (as stated previously).

Motifs 2-6 Join as you go on Rnd 5 as follows: (green circle) 3dc in sp, dc in all sts to next sp, (blue circle) 2dc in sp, PLT in corner dc of completed adjacent motif, dc in same sp on motif in progress, PLT in corresponding adjacent st on completed motif, (blue line) (dc, PLT) in all sts across joining side to next sp, (red circle) dc in sp on motif in progress, PLT, 2dc in same sp on motif in progress, (dc in all sts to next sp, 3dc in sp) 4 times omitting final 3dc, ss in first dc, cut yarn. [1 side joined]

Motif 7 Join as you go on Rnd 5 as follows: (green circle) 3dc in sp, dc in all sts to next sp, (blue circle) 2dc in sp, PLT in corner dc of completed adjacent motif, dc in same sp on motif in progress, PLT in corresponding adjacent st on completed motif, * (blue line) (dc, PLT) in all sts across joining side to next sp, (purple circle) dc in sp, PLT in corresponding st on Motif 3, dc in same sp, PLT in corner dc of adjacent corner on Motif 2, dc in same sp, PLT in next st on Motif 2, rep from * 2 times, (blue line) (dc, PLT) in all sts across joining side to next sp, (red circle) dc in sp on motif in progress, PLT, 2dc in same sp on motif in progress, dc in all sts to next sp, ss in first dc, cut yarn.
