Crochet Star Applique

In this post, I want to show you how to make a super easy and quick star. You can use this stat for decorating pretty much anything. You can turn any project into patriotic, using red, white, and blue colors. With golden yellow or silver-gray, you can decorate Christmas projects.

Tools and Materials

You can use any yarn. With different weights, you can control the size of the stars. For some projects, you may need smaller or bigger stars.

Use the Yarnart Jeans yarn and 2.5 mm hook for a smaller star. Use Red Heart Supersaviour and 3.5 or 3.75 mm for a bigger star.

You also may need scissors and a tapestry needle and pins to secure the star in place while sewing.

Abbreviations

MR – Magic ring

Sl st – Slip stitch

Ch – Chain

Hdc – Half double crochet

Dc- Double crochet

Instructions

R1: 8 sc into MR (8)

R2: 7 inc, sc, sl st into the first st of the previous round (15)

R3: Ch 4, sc into the 2nd ch from the hook, hdc into the 3rd st from the hook, dc into the 4th st from the hook, skip 2 st, and work sl st into the 3rd st.

Right after sl st, ch 4 again and repeat steps of the 3rd round 4 more times. After the last sl st made, insert the hook from the wrong side to pull the yarn end to the wrong side. Make a couple of knots to secure the ends.
