#needleworkmonday :: Crochet star ⭐

Hehe, my googlyeyes saw @cryptocariad's post and decided to follow her googlyeyes' footsteps. They found their way to this little star crochet, following a pattern I found for a crochet star ornament by Persia Lou.
It is an easy pattern to follow. I combined 2 silvery lace yarns and used a crochet hook G, 4.00mm:
![1.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://files.steempeak.com/file/steempeak/marblely/UiuTG3SZ-1.jpg)
The pattern starts with a magic loop and chain 3 which counts as 1 double crochet (dc):

After chaining 3, the pattern asked to add 9 dc into the magic loop, tighten the loop and end with a slip knot to the first chain 3. This gives us 10 dc.

Then, the pattern asks to chain 1, single crochet (sc) into the same space, (dc, trc, ch 1, trc, dc) all in next st, *sc in next st, (dc, trc, ch 1, trc, dc) into the next stitch and repeat from * 3 times, slip stitch into the starting sc.

We will have 5 star points and after we weave in the ends, we are done!

Then, it was time to do some 'blocking' and I pinned the star onto an IKEA heat pot mat and that was when my googlyeyes started to sneak its way in.

Step by step, Oooh baby, Gonna get to you, Star-ah-ah-ah-ah...
And once they found their place, googlyeyes started going nuts!
