I can’t wait to show you my brand new pattern for the holiday 2024 season: the Amigurumi Star Collection. This four-in-one collection is the ultimate amigurumi star crochet pattern – completely smooth and seamless, with clean straight lines and no gaps to sew closed!
I came up with the idea for this construction method last Christmas, when I needed a better star topper for my giant crocheted Christmas tree. The star I originally made in 2022 didn’t meet my standards – the concept looked better in my head than it did in reality – so I decided to go back to the drawing board and concentrate on creating the perfect smooth star shape. The result was so lovely that I knew it would become my 2024 Christmas pattern!
About the Design
I’ve translated my original concept into four different star sizes for this pattern. Mix-and-match colours and sizes to make all sorts of starry decor:
- Individual stars make perfect Christmas tree ornaments
- String a row of stars into a stylish garland
- Add stars to your Christmas wreaths or other decor
- Add smiley faces and make an adorable baby mobile
Use my free Crocheted Wreath Base pattern to create this starry wreath.
And of course, you can scale any of the patterns up or down using different yarn weights and hook sizes (see my Scaling Amigurumi article for details). To see how these would look in different scales, I made a giant star throw pillow with blanket yarn and a miniature star using metallic crochet thread!
L: over 15″ across; R: just over an inch across!
About the Pattern
This no-sew collection includes four different star sizes (Tiny, Small, Medium and Large) with diameters of about 2.25-4.25″ (6-10.5cm) when worked in worsted weight yarn.
Clockwise from top left: Large, Tiny, Medium, Small
All four sizes of star are worked in the same way, and the pattern includes right- and left-handed appendices with detailed step-by-step instructions for the seamless gapless construction. Once you’ve made your first star and understand how it works, you’ll be whipping up more in no time – they’re quite addictive!
