The humble hexagon cardigan has been around for quite a few years - it's a variation of the classic granny square and is a great project for using up yarn. As anyone with an Instagram account has seen, the hexagons are well and truly enjoying a heyday, with a huge range of colours and pattern variations to discover. If you are embarking on your own hexagon cardigan, check out these bright and cheerful creations for inspiration!

Sadly, the yarn for this cardigan is no longer sold, but a similar effect could be achieved by using different shades of green scrap yarn.
A pop of pink!
This one's very topical - it's Barbie themed! I've yet to come across an Oppenheimer cardi but you never know...
Very stylish!
