Crochet Starfish Tutorial - Beginner Crochet Applique Tutorial

In my crochet tutorial today I'll be showing you how to make this crochet starfish applique.
If you would like to view the crochet pattern for free, it's on my website at kerriscrochet.com/crochet-sta... or you can download it from Ravelry at www.ravelry.com/patterns/libr... for $1 at and LoveCrafts at www.lovecrafts.com/en-gb/p/ca...
You can also subscribe to Kerri's Crochet Newsletter and get a free copy of the Crochet Cat Towel eBook at www.kerriscrochet.com/crochet...
For this pattern you will need any thickness crochet cotton or yarn, I used Scheepjes Catona Cotton (201) Electric Blue. A crochet hook, I used a 2.5mm hook. A darning needle to weave in ends, sewing thread and needle to stitch the starfish together and a pair of scissors.
The finished size will be 12.5cm wide x 12.5cm high (5” wide x 5” high) for the larger starfish, using 8 ply crochet cotton. The size of the starfish in Catona will be 10cm wide x 10cm high (4” wide x 4” high). The medium starfish will be 9cm wide x 9cm high (3.5” wide x 3.5” high) when using 4 ply crochet cotton. The small starfish will be 7cm wide x 7cm high (2.75” wide x 2.75” high) when using 2 ply crochet cotton.

ANOTHER BEAUTY! THANK YOU KERRI 😊 FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK IN MAKING YOUR PATTERN TUTORIALS I really appreciate you helping me learn to crochet these amazing Applique to add an extra zing to my children projects ❤️! I'm enjoying this bucket beach hat pattern and having a blast making along with your tutorials different sceneries on top and around the sides of the hat , I made the hats in larger sizes so they can wear them this summer. Take care my friend!
