Adorn your life with crochet stars!

These easy and fun to crochet stars can be used for so many things! Start with the basic star that can be stitched onto clothing as a decorative patch or worn as a pin. Create adorable stuffed ""star babies"" with hugging arms and cute little faces. Frame your favorite ""star"" in a picture frame or make a magic wand for a fairy. Decorate a journal cover or wear small stars as earrings. Make multiple stars and then sew them together to make a scarf, table runner, place mat, or garland. Once you've mastered the basic stars, customize your creations with beads, ribbons, lace and other embellishments.

These little stars are perfect for using up small bits of yarn and to stash in your bag for crocheting on the go. The 20+ ideas here are a great place to start, but once you start crocheting stars, the sky is the limit!

Reviews for Crochet Stars: 25+ Customizable Projects Full of Love, Laughter, and Inspiration

Noreen has long been an inspiration to me because of her many books, her kind and vibrant personality, and her willingness to share her creativity with everyone! Crochet Stars is no exception! The star is a universal symbol that conjures many emotions including fantasy, amazing hopes/dreams, and guidance. As Noreen points out, ""Humans have always used stars to navigate."" As you navigate through this book's dynamic design, colorful and clever projects, you too may find comfort from sorrow or the pleasant moments that creating brings! Noreen has created over ""25 customizable projects full of love, laughter and inspiration."" As you crochet your way through the patterns Noreen has skillfully provided, you will find the ""glimmer effect"" that she has inspired you to create for every room of your home. From a tragic family loss, Noreen has ""crafted comfort with her crochet hook as she moves through the difficult path of grief and mourning."" Her introduction to each star pattern felt like Noreen was on my couch sharing her rich philosophy of life. I hope you make time every day to gaze at the stars for comfort and to show gratitude for who you are. --Gwen Blakley Kinsler, Author of The Fine Art of Crochet
