[Nfb-krafters-korner] star in crochet?

[Lillie Pennington]

Hi terry and all
I am just starting to learn shapes and am by no means an expert.
For triangles, you generally start out with 2 chain stitches to form a point. You then work two stitches into the same stitch to increase the length of the rows.
For your question about the star. I was working on a flower motif last week that essentially looked like a star except for having 6 arms. 
The pattern started out with me chaining and forming a ring, then crocheting in the round for a little. Then the arms were made by making chains and then flourishing their sides with stitches to make them fuller.
