A hexagon ball

 So, the other night I was in bed, reading blogs on my I-phone and I came across this hexagon tutorial

 And somewhere, or maybe I dreamed it, I saw where they put hexagons together to make a ball.

 And I thought...what a cute gift idea for a baby!  And my friend, who happens to own a yarn store, just became a Grandmother.

 So I started crocheting hexagons, but for the life of me I could NOT find that ball pattern again.

 But tonight at crochet...."K" and I figured it out!

 Stitch three together, then stitch one hexy on the bottom,

 and one partially on the top.

  

I rolled a rather large bell up in batting...

 and I kept rolling it until it was the right size to fit in the ball.

 Stuff it inside the opening then stitch it closed.  

 What do you think?

 I love it!
