Funny Crochet Starfish For Blankets

Here’s a fun way to add a little something extra to the blankets you’re making.

Here’s how to make a starfish:
Supplies Needed: Crochet Hook size K and extra yarn (preferably the same color yarn as one used in the blanket).
Special Stitch: If you’re familiar with a Treble Crochet, there’s a variation called the Double Treble Crochet.
Here’s how you make it: Yarn over 3 times, insert hook in stitch, yarn over, pull loop through (yarn over & pull through 2 loops) 4 times. Row 1 - CH 2, work 6 SC in 2nd CH from hook, join with SS to first SC. Row 2 - Ch 1, 2 SC in first SC and in each SC around, join with SS to first SC. Row 3 - CH 1, SC in same ST, 2 SC in next ST, *SC in next ST, 2 SC next ST; repeat from * around, join with SS to first SC. Row 4 - CH 1, SC in same ST, SC in next ST, 2 SC in next ST, *SC in next 2 ST, 2 SC in next ST, repeat from * around, join with SS to first SC. Row 5 - CH 1, SC in same ST, ST in next 2 ST, 2 SC in next ST, *SC in next 3 ST, 2 SC in next ST, repeat from * around, join with SS to first SC. Row 6 - *CH 11, SC in 2nd CH from hook, SC in next CH, HDC in next 2 CH, DC in next 2 CH, TC in next 2 CH, DTC in last 2 CH, skip 4 SC in round 5, SS in each of next 2 SC in round 5; repeat from * around, ending with SS in last SC of round 5. Fasten off; weave in ends.
ABBREVIATIONS:
CH = chain
HDC = half double crochet
DC = double crochet
SS = slip stitch
SC = single crochet
DTC = double treble crochet
ST = stitch
TC = treble crochet
