Studying the Stars... 5 Free Star Crochet Patterns

..it was absolutely necessary if I wanted to make them for my etsy shop again. Since we moved halfway across the country I managed to pack my patterns and am at a loss for which box they might be in. I've already exhausted my pinterest boards to see if I may have pinned said star pattern. No dice, if I did pin it, it wasn't labelled "star". I had to figure out the pattern to make these stars to list in my shop - ergo, I studied the stars.I suppose it's okay though, it's given me another project AND pattern to share with you here. Though I need to stop this! ;) If I show you all the patterns I use you'll never buy anything from my etsy store - lol  




All stars were made using worsted weight cotton yarn and size H/8-5.00MM

There are lots of things you can make with these stars! 
Use them as ornaments to decorate your tree! 
Or, crochet them together and make them into a garland!
They would look lovely adorning gifts under your tree 
or attached to a gift basket as well!
Enjoy!
