I have been working on an ice cream cone version of my Ice Cream Sundae Doll and of course, had to get all fancy in trying to design one with a bit of texture and an advanced stitch called the Honeycomb Lattice stitch. Due to the way I had to work this stitch, the cone worked up too narrow and long to be able to work for the Ice Cream Sundae doll, therefore, I just made an ice cream cone using the waffle stitch. I was still tickled with myself because I had worked up an advanced stitch that is usually worked flat in rows, in the round with increases. So rather than determine this little project as a fail, I decided I would share it with the rest of the community as a free pattern. Enjoy!

Please feel free to improve upon this design and share your improvements! Thank you!

Materials:
– small amount of worsted weight yarn in cone color. (I used Hobby Lobby’s I love this Cotton! in Taupe)
– small amount of worsted weight yarn in ice cream. (Hobby Lobby’s I love this Cotton! in Pistache and Brown)
– Size G (4.0mm) Crochet Hook
– Fiberfil

Size: 6 ½”

Guage:
Not critical for this project.

Difficulty:

Special Stitches:
MC – Magic Circle Honeycomb Lattice – A single crochet background with a series of strategically placed front-post triple (or treble) crochet stitches worked across the surface to form a lattice, a series of connecting Xs. Here is a great video that explains this stitch further, the Honeycomb Stitch. Honeycomb Lattice Increase – A Honeycomb Lattice stitch that is worked where the second post is worked in the middle of the three stitches between previously made Honeycomb Lattice stitches.
