Crocheting: Brilliant Starburst
52 kudoz

Brilliant Starburst

Pattern Info

Pattern info for this project can be found here:
Brilliant Starburst »

Difficulty:

Category: Crocheting

Type of item: Home Decor

For: Home

Style: Classic


Materials

Louet Gems Worsted Wool yarn.

What was your inspiration?

This is how I imagine the midnight sky would look with a full moon, through a prism.

What are you most proud of?

With just two motifs, it makes a very intricate pattern.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Take the time to get your triangle and hexagon gauges to match. The stitches will automatically line up because of the pattern. Block pieces before sewing them.
