The idea of crocheting a star comes from the newly released stunning images of the universe. A previously invisible part of the cosmos is now accessible to human eyes. Isnt it amazing?

There must be many unknown beauties out there. Exploring will bring surprises. I have found similar feelings in crocheting. Sometimes, I dont know what a skein of yarn can turn into, but with experiments, it becomes a beautiful design and an item I can use or wear in daily life.

My crocheted stars are not as magnificent as the images of the universe. But, the idea of building a star with your hands does sound good, right?

The PDF is written in English, and it includes:

  • a crochet chart
  • a written pattern (in US terms)
  • step-by-step instructions
  • guiding images for each step

Basic crochet stitches used in this project:

  • magic circle
  • slip stitch
  • chain stitch
  • single crochet
  • half double crochet
  • double crochet

You can use any size yarn to make these stars.

As a reference, using size medium 4 yarn (gauge info on the label: 5.5MM Hook, 12 SC, 15 R) with G/7 4.50 MM hook, the size of the star is approximately 2.5 inches across.
