One of my favorite crochet stitches is the Jasmine Star Stitch. When I first taught myself to crochet I waited until I felt comfortable with simple stitches and then I jumped right into learning this beautiful stitch. Since then I have been obsessed! It takes a little concentration and patience but the end result is a show stopper, jaw-dropping result.
A lot of patterns call for various amounts of yarn overs in creating the puff or petal of the jasmine star stitch. In this tutorial, I used three yarn overs which is what it calls for in my Aloha Placemat Pattern. The same techniques are applied for the jasmine star stitch, just pay attention to how many yarn overs are called for in the pattern.
If you’re curious who made my beautiful hand-carved/painted crochet hook, my friend Roux at Hand Carved Hook by Roux Studios made it! It was custom made and painted just for me!
