STITCH EXPLANATION
sc2tog (sc 2 sts together) (Insert hook in next st and draw up a loop) twice, yarn over and draw through all 3 loops on hook – 1 st decreased.
NOTES
- Center of Star is made from 2 circles.
- Star Points are worked in joined rnds from outer edge of Circles to point. To begin a Star Point, half of the first rnd sts are worked along one Circle and the other half are worked along the matching sts of the second Circle.
- Exact gauge is not essential. However, work tightly so that stuffing does not show through spaces between stitches.
STAR CENTER CIRCLES (make 2)
Wrap yarn around index finger. Insert hook into ring on finger, yarn over and draw up a loop. Carefully slip ring from finger and work the stitches of Rnd 1 into the ring.
- Rnd 1 (RS) : Ch 1, work 5 sc in ring; join with sl st in first sc – you will have 5 sc in this rnd. Gently but firmly, pull tail to tighten center of ring.
- Rnd 2: Ch 1 , 2 sc in each st around; join with sl st in first sc – 10 sc.
- Rnd 3: Ch 1, sc in next st, 2 sc in next st, place a marker in last st made; rep from around; join with sl st in first sc – 15 sc. You will have placed 5 markers.
- Rnd 4: Ch 1, sc in each st to next marked st, 2 sc in marked st, move marker to last st made; rep from around; join with sl st in first sc – 20 sc.
- Rep Rnd 4 until you have a total of 25 rnds – you will have a total of 125 sts with 24 sts between marked sts.
Fasten off. Do not remove markers.
Place Circles with WS together (RS facing out) and stitches and markers matching. Use the markers of one Circle to pin the Circles together.
