Pattern Correction & Tips

  • Correction: Be sure to skip the 2 “leaning in” stitches between corners in Rounds 3-4—this is important for star shape.
  • Tip: To avoid weaving ends, crochet over ends as you join panels.
  • Tip: For a firmer star, steam block your panels before joining.
  • Tip: For a lined pouch, sew a small fabric lining by hand and place inside before joining panels.
