Christmas Star Tutorial

Good Evening lovely's! I hope everyone had a great weekend!

With Christmas only being 10 days away, I thought it would be fun to do a little crochet Christmas decoration tutorial. 




Let's get started shall we, gather your favorite colors of yarn(I used worsted weight) and a 4.25mm hook(size G).

(note - this pattern is written in american terms) 

To start, make a foundation chain of 5, join with a slip stitch to the first chain to form a ring.
Round 1 - ch3, 2dc, ch3, *3dc, ch3. Repeat from the * 3 more times(5 dc clusters and 5 ch 3 spaces). Join with a slip stitch to the 3rd ch of the starting ch3.




Round 2 - slip stitch into the next 2 dc and into the first ch3 space. Ch3, 2dc, ch3, 3dc, 1hd in 2nd dc of next dc cluster. *3dc, ch3, 3dc in next ch3 space, 1hdc in 2nd dc of next ch cluster. Repeat from * 3 more times. Join with a slip stitch in 3rd chain of starting ch3.





Round 3 - Slip stitch into next 2 dc and into first dc ch3 space. Ch3, 3dc, ch4, 4dc, 1sc on both sides of the hdc from previous round. *4dc, ch4, 4dc in next ch3 space, 1 sc on both sides of the next hdc from previous round. Repeat from * 3 mores times. Join with a slip stitch in 3rd chain from starting ch3, Fasten off and wave in ends.




These stars are great sewn into garland or hung by themselves on your tree would look amazing! You can even make them in a cotton yarn for a Christmas themed washer!
