Christmas Star Ornaments Free Crochet Pattern

With the holidays right around the corner I want to share with you the Christmas Star Ornaments Free Crochet Pattern.  Some people have started making their Christmas items.  I got to say I am actually ahead of my designing phase!  🙂

Usually I am running behind on my holiday designs.  I have gotten a little bit better about doing my pattern testing before everyone gets started on their Christmas gifts and designs.   But, I am designing Fall and Christmas Circle Table Runners right now.  The Fall one is definitely a lot late, so that will have to wait until next year.  🙂

I designed a baby blanket for the 2nd year of the Preemie Crochet Challenge 2021, hosted by Sunflower Cottage Crochet.  The pattern is called Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Baby Blanket and I used stars in the design. You can find free and paid crochet patterns for the last 2 years of preemie crochet challenges.  I decided to use the star pattern for these cute little Christmas Ornaments.  There is no gauge to follow.  You can use these mini designs for gift giving, gift decorations, stocking stuffers and more!  You can use any type of yarn you like when crocheting these stars.  

If you prefer you can find Step-by-Step picture tutorials and different versions of the stars inside the Ad-Free PDF crochet pattern.
