I knit my 33rd hexagon and 4th half hexagon last night.
My lap blanket will have 3 columns of 7 hexagons and between those columns, 2 columns of 6 hexagons with half hexagons at the top and bottom of those columns to create a straight top and bottom. Like so:
Once assembled and blocked the lap blanket will measure 36" x 56".I'm also thinking of doing an i-cord edging all the way around it like I did for my mitred square blankets.
My plan is to butt the edges and whip stitch them together. If that doesn't work well, I'll figure out a way to crochet them together. I don't want to have a ridge between hexagons.
This will be a project I'll be taking to the cottage next week.
