The Crochet Buddies Aquatic Crafts Season Of Creativity Has Begun!
This week we’re getting the ball (of yarn) rolling with a free crochet pattern and tutorial!
Crochet starfish are the ideal gift, accessory, decoration and multi-purpose craft project. At the beginner level, they are among the easiest items to crochet, with plenty of yarn left for other projects. I originally designed the starfish while experimenting with different styles and techniques for the Crochet Coral Reef Project. What I love about this pattern is how the ends of the limbs naturally curl, creating a very lifelike effect. The symmetry is also very aesthetic and easy on the eye. (Different crochet tension and yarn create different curling effects, so try adjusting one or both for various results!)
For those who may have seen this pattern before, this is a revised version of a previous starfish tutorial. I’ve updated the photos for a new, more aquatic feel — the pattern itself remains the same.
Enjoy!
IMPORTANT UPDATE 2025: All patterns (free and paid) are now Products in the Shop. You can find the crochet starfish pattern HERE. You can also create a free account (optional) to manage downloaded patterns and your virtual stash.
