Star Applique in 6 Sizes – Free Crochet Pattern

November 28, 2015

This is a free crochet pattern for how-to crochet my Star Applique

This post contains affiliate links for Consumer Crafts and LoveCrafts. If you make a purchase by clicking on them, I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thanks for your support!

You may have seen this Star Applique in my recent Seeing Stars Basic Baby Beanie post, or my Star and Stripes Baby Beanie post. Ever since I put it down in writing, I have wanted to try out different yarn types to see what other size options I could get.

If you would like a PDF version of this post, you may get one through either my EyeLoveKnots Etsy Shop, Ravelry or LoveCrafts Shop for a small fee. This fee is to compensate for the views lost when you no longer need to return to the blog to for the information, as you will have your own copy. Plus! It helps fund supplies for new projects to share with you!

Want to make some coasters? I used this pattern to make my Seeing Stars Coasters.

Materials:      

  • #10 Cotton Thread & B/2mm Hook – I used Aunt Lydias Classic Crochet Thread in Burgundy
  • Sock Weight & D/3mm Hook – I used Premier Yarns Wool-Free Sock Yarn in Pueblo
  • Fine Weight (2) & E/3.5mm Hook – I used Lion Brand’s Vanna’s Glamour in Diamond
  • Light/Sport (3) & 7/4.5mm Hook – I used Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Sportweight in Red
  • Worsted Weight (4) & I9/5.5mm Hook – I used Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn in Ivory Sparkle
  • Chunky (5) & J10/6mm Hook – I used Premier’s Serenity Chunky in After Dark
  • Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends

Material Notes:

Any weight yarn will do – star measurements will vary.

Some hook sizes listed above are not standard US hook sizes. You can change out to the closest one you have – for example, in my now old set I did not have a 2mm but I had a 2.25mm and I did not have a 4.5mm but I had a 4.25mm.

Time Spent:

I had each star ready to go in about ten minutes!

Measurements:

  • Burgundy Star Measures 2″ from point to point.
  • Pueblo Star Measures 2.25″ from point to point.
  • Diamond Star Measures 3″ from point to point.
  • Red Star Measures 3.5″ from point to point.
  • Ivory Sparkle Star Measures 4.5″ from point to point.
  • After Dark Star Measures 5.25″ from point to point.

Gauge:

Not essential for this project and will vary.

Abbreviations:

  • SC – Single Crochet
  • HDC – Half Double Crochet
  • DC – Double Crochet
  • TR – Triple Crochet [yarn over twice, insert hook into stitch, yarn over, pull through (4 loops on hook), (yarn over, pull through two loops) 3x]
  • QUAD – Quadruple Crochet [yarn over three times, insert hook into stitch, yarn over, pull through (5 loops on hook), (yarn over, pull through two loops) 4x] 

Pattern Notes:

Join to first stitch, not beginning chain.

Pattern:

Chain 4. Join to form a ring. Chain 1, work 10 HDC into the ring. Join. (10 HDC)

R2: Chain 1, HDC in the 1st HDC, 2 HDC in each of the next 9 HDCs, HDC in the last HDC. Join. (20 HDC)

R3: (Chain 6 and work down the chain, SC in the 2nd chain, HDC in the 3rd chain, DC in the 4th chain, TR in the 5th chain and QUAD in the 6th chain; Back to the circle, skip the first stitch that the chain 6 is coming out of, and next three HDCs, slip stitch in the 5th stitch) 5x, ending with your slip stitch in the same stitch as you began the round.

Fasten Off, and Weave in Ends.

    I am somewhat jealous of your hooks. I have one that is like that, and it is so much more comfortable to use.

    These hooks look amazing!! I hate that some hooks cover up the sizes or only have one. I prefer to know the mm. I too have a hard time finding ergonomic hooks that fit in my hands. These look like they might be a good option

      These were a GREAT option for me! I love the fun colors, when in turn makes it easy to remember which size is which. They also feel awesome in my hands – I crochet so much that my hands ache all the time, and these definitely help with that.

      It is! I was a little worried about what kind of bag I'd be getting, but I couldn't have asked for a better bag! And now I found out they have other fun options too.

    Hi I’m just learning how to make the stars but I need to make one big one for a blanket I’m making but I’m not sure how to. I can make a small one but how many more chains and double crochets do I use?? HELP PLZZ!!

      This small one already requires quite a few yarn overs, and large stitch (quad). I am not sure how much larger you need to go, but you might have more luck working a large circle/hexagon, and then work back in forth to create the star shape.

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind EyeLoveKnots and On Rockwood Lane! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.
