  • rnd - round

Instructions:

Center Circle:

  1. With orange yarn, make a magic ring.
  2. Round 1: Ch 1, work 6 sc into the ring. Pull the ring tight (6 sc).
  3. Round 2: Ch 1, (2 sc in each sc) around (12 sc).
  4. Round 3: Ch 1, (1 sc, 2 sc in next sc) around (18 sc). Finish off and weave in ends.

Outer Star Points:

  1. Using cream yarn, attach with a sl st to any sc of the center circle.
  2. Round 1: Ch 1, *sc in next 4 sc, (3 dc in next sc, sc in next 4 sc, sl st in next sc)*. Repeat from * around 6 times. You should have 6 star points.
  3. Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing, and weave in rest of ends.

Flower Petals:

  1. Using the color of your choice (for example, yellow), join with a sl st into a point of the star.
  2. Ch 3, then work 2 dc in the same st. Ch 3 and sl st into the same st to create one petal.
  3. Repeat until you’ve created 6 petals around the star points. Finish off and weave in ends.

Finishing:

To finish, block the star by gently stretching it into shape and pinning it down to dry flat. This helps enhance the design and ensures it lies flat without curling.

Optional Variations:

You can try using different colors for your star points and flower petals or create a larger version by adding more rounds to your center circle. Each piece can also be joined together to form a larger blanket or tapestry.
