Variations on many themes

hex yoyo crochet afghan
As most of you know, I like English paper piecing and I like making fabric yoyo's and crocheting. So, in the process of making the yoyo afghan, I thought about all of those things and came up with a variation of all of them together. This is just my first mock up. It does have a different stitch count than the yoyo afghan tutorial to achieve the hexogonal shape.

UPDATE:
I am already getting requests (on flickr) for a tutorial for this version; if you are interested in that, let me know by leaving a comment in this post.

Second update:
There is now a pattern posted for this.
