The baby starghan is done!



I don't know if this picture is much different, but here it is.

Hook size: F

Dimensions: 19 1/2" from point to center; 38" point to point across

Yarn:
Bernat Baby Coordinates in

  • White
  • Baby Pink
  • Lemon Custard (yellow)
  • Iced Mint (green)
  • Soft Blue
  • Soft Mauve (purple)

*************************************************


But how does one fold a starghan??? This is what I came up with. The back doesn't look great, but this is how I will put in the box when I ship it off to the Mom- and Dad-to-be.

1. Fold all the points into the center.


2. Fold one point of the pentagon into the center.


3. Fold the top two corners to the center (like an envelope flap).


4. Fold the left side to the center.


5. Fold the right side to the center.


6. Flip over and voila!
