Hexagon chart: Crochet Chart Maker
Draw corner chains separately from counted posts
The two-round hexagon worksheet contains thirty-six double-crochet glyphs and twenty-four corner-chain glyphs. Round one contributes twelve posts and twelve chains; round two contributes twenty-four posts and another twelve chains. Sixty occupied cells therefore belong to a thirty-six-post construction with separately recorded chain spaces. Counting every drawn token as a double crochet would erase the six-corner logic.
Maintain the original six receiving spaces
Begin in a magic ring with six repeated groups of double crochet, chain two and double crochet. On the next round, move to a corner space as instructed, work its two posts around a chain-two gap and preserve each old post along the following side once. All six corner spaces remain available. The source map draws the insertion lines; the free-placement canvas displays the resulting symbols without generating those connections.
Interpret rotation limits honestly
Six-sided geometry uses sixty-degree turns, while this editor snaps rotations to forty-five degrees. The original worksheet uses the nearest supported orientation for legibility and retains the exact source recipe separately. Do not treat a slightly rotated glyph as a new stitch type, a decrease or a seventh corner. The coordinate table names each corner chain and post so a reviewer can compare the saved slots with the source independently of visual proximity.
FAQ and review checks
Do all sixty cells describe new posts?
No. Twenty-four are chains and thirty-six are posts.
Why does the center have no ring symbol?
The supported editor glyph set has no magic-ring token. Follow the explicit source foundation.
Can this worksheet define a joined blanket?
It supplies one counted motif. A blanket needs separate measured motif placement and shared-edge instructions.
Should I stretch the six corners into a circle?
Preserve the intended relaxed outline and assess an actual sample rather than forcing another shape.
Exact editor setup and independent source files
Open the Crochet Chart Maker with 65 columns and 65 canvas rows. Download the exact editable original worksheet and retain its palette, rotations and blank cells. For crocheting use smooth compatible yarn, a matching hook, scissors, markers and a tapestry needle. A physical swatch is required for dimensions, flatness, surface suitability and material consumption. This is original vector construction documentation, not a photographic or physically certified finished sample.
Twelve then twenty-four dc make 36 posts. Six corners in each round each have two additional chains:24 chain symbols. Canvas rotations snap to 45 degrees; the exact six-corner receiving structure remains in the source map. Read the stitch-chart guide alongside both files. In US terms sc,hdc,dc,tr mean single,half double,double and treble crochet; UK labels become dc,htr,tr,dtr. Canonical saved symbols and coordinates remain the same. The editor's free-placement row list inventories diagram cells; the complete source sequence below supplies the actual working order. Arbitrary later edits require a new connection review.
Source 1: complete counted construction
Download source 1 for hexagon-motif and restore it in its matching generator. Source counts: 12 completed source units, 24 completed source units. Six corner spaces are maintained separately from dc counts. Each round adds 12 dc. Rotate the round start to a corner before continuing; block without stretching.
- Magic ring: ch 2 (not counted), then repeat (dc, ch 2, dc) six times; sl st to first dc. [12 source units]
- Sl st to the first corner space. Ch 2 (not counted). Repeat six times: (dc, ch 2, dc) in corner space, then dc in every old dc along the side up to the next corner. Join to first dc. [24 source units]
Exact canvas-to-source symbol register
Columns and canvas rows below are one-based screen coordinates, counted from the top left. Each entry names its actual stitch or chain role. Blank positions are layout space. Verify the independent source before crocheting.
