Here is a easy crochet tutorial for the Christmas snowflake star motif shown in your picture.
(It’s a two-color, 6-point star with a white center and colored border.)
⭐ CROCHET SNOWFLAKE STAR — FULL DETAILED TUTORIAL
🧶 Materials
- White yarn (center)
- Red or green yarn (border)
- Hook 3.0–4.0 mm
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
⭐ PART 1 — WHITE CENTER
Round 1: Make the base circle
- Make a magic ring.
- Ch 2 (this counts as the first DC).
- Make 11 DC inside the magic ring.
→ Total = 12 stitches. - Pull the ring tight.
- Sl st into the top of the ch-2 to close the round.
✔ Now you have a small circle.
⭐ Round 2 — Form the 6 star bases
We will turn the 12 stitches into 6 groups.
- Ch 3 (counts as 1 DC).
- In the next stitch, crochet:
- 1 DC
- Ch 2
- 1 DC
✨ This creates your first “V” group.
- Ch 1, skip 1 stitch.
- In the next stitch, make your next “V”:
DC, ch 2, DC - Repeat this:
- Ch 1, skip 1 stitch
- (DC, ch 2, DC) in next stitch
Do this until you have 6 V-groups in total.
- Sl st into the top of the first ch-3.
✔ You now have a hexagon shape with 6 ch-2 spaces.
✔ Each ch-2 space will become a star point.
Fasten off white yarn.
⭐ PART 2 — COLORED BORDER (RED OR GREEN)
Now you create the snowflake star shape.
Join your color yarn in any ch-2 space.
⭐ Round 3 — Make the 6 star points
You will work a full point in each ch-2 space.
In each ch-2 space, crochet this sequence:
- SC (1 single crochet)
- HDC (1 half double crochet)
- 3 DC (3 double crochets)
- HDC
- SC
👉 This creates one full star point.
After finishing each point:
- Sl st into the next ch-1 space (between the V-groups)
This anchors the point and gives nice spacing.
Then move to the next ch-2 space and repeat the same stitches.
Continue until all 6 star points are completed.
Sl st into the first SC and fasten off.
⭐ OPTIONAL — POINTY PICOT TIP (if you want it sharp like a star)
At the top of each point, after the 3 DC:
- Ch 3
- Sl st into the 1st chain (picot)
- Continue with HDC + SC
Makes it more like a snowflake.
⭐ FINISHING
- Weave in all yarn ends.
- Lightly block it for a flat shape.
And you’re done!
