This mat is appropriate to use as a hot dish mat or on an occasional table.
Using J. & P. Coats Knit-Cro-Sheen and No. 4 crochet hook, make chain (ch) 5 and join with a slip stitch (sl st) to form a ring. 1st round (rnd):
Then make 6 single crochet (s c) in ring. Use a piece of colored thread to mark the first single crochet so that you will know where your work started. 2nd round (rnd): Make 2 single crochet (s c) in each stitch of preceding round (rnd). This makes 6 increases so that there are now 12 stitches (sts) instead of 6. 3rd rnd: Mark the beginning stitch in this round. Now * make 1 single crochet (s c) in the next stitch (st); then, in the 2nd stitch make an increase (that is, 2 single crochet in the same stitch). Repeat from * around—that is, 1 single crochet in the next stitch and an increase in the following stitch, so that when the round is completed there will be 18 stitches (sts). 4th rnd: Mark the beginning stitch of this round. * Make 1 single crochet (s c) in each of the next 2 stitches. Then make an increase in the 3rd stitch. Repeat from * around. There will be 24 stitches when the round is completed. 5th and subsequent rounds (rnds): Continue to work in this manner, having an additional stitch between each increase in each round, until the hexagon is as large as you desire.
