In order to make up for the time which I lost last week to change the design of the hexagons, I made quite a few this week. I now have 16 in total completed (9 from this week and 7 from last week). You may notice in the photo that not all of the hexagon borders are complete, but I will have this done hopefully by tomorrow. These are done separately because the other color of yarn must be cut off first and the white color for the border attached. I believe that I am getting into more of a rhythm with this blanket, which is a good sign because I had some difficulty completing the last one.
Next week or the week after, I want to test out sewing the hexagons together to make sure that the method I plan to use is viable. I will test out different sewing stitches and research them to see which will be the most effective for this situation. With only 4 weeks left of the project, I feel like I am on a good track to complete this project. I believe I will aim for a slightly lower number of hexagons for the final product since this is my first time doing something like this with crochet, and I am inexperienced in sewing. I may only attempt to make 25 hexagons or less. However, I will need to look into this further to see that I will have a number which will make a square-like shape. I will test this by using a software like Photoshop to make a visual representation of my plan. Please keep in mind that the hexagons shown in the photo below are only the ones I made this week! I still have the other 7 from the other two weeks.
