I have finally written my notes up for my version of the Hexagon Sweater.
Sue's Hexagon Baby Sweater
Materials: sport weight yarn
(I used Lion Brand Baby Soft) and an F hook
Ch 6, join yarn with a sl st to form a ring.
Round 1: Ch 3 (count as 1st dc), 2 dc in ring, *ch 2, 3 dc in ring, repeat from * 4 times, ch 1, hdc into top of beg ch 3 (6 sets of 3 dc).

Rounds 3 - 12: Repeat round 2
At the end of round 2 fasten off. Make a second hexagon leaving abut a yard of yarn for use in stitching.
Sew the 2 hexagons together along one side and then fold the "wrinkled bathmat" to us an Elizabeth Zimmermann phrase into a sweater. The seam you just sewed is the center back. The tops of the sleeves will be open. Refer to the link of the original for pictures.
