I love stars as you might have already understood from the banner on my blog and etsy shop and I wanted to design my own special star to represent me and the items I knit.

A soft, smooth star with no ribs or seams in the middle of the pentagon surface. After struggling a while thinking about the most original and complex ways to build the perfect geometry of my beloved star - challenging centuries of mathematical discoveries - I finally came up with an easy and quick pattern which served the purpose very well.

You can use the star as a pin, a decoration for a hair band, a bracelet and a keyring. In summer you could add it to your seaside bag or protection cream pouch to keep you company in your summer holiday.

At Christmas you could seam the two sides with some sparlink yarn and add some beads and you will have your personalized and handmade Christmas tree decorations.
