Notes from pattern:

“This star is knit in the round from the points to the centre, starting with a cast-on from where stitches are later picked up to knit the other side. The pattern includes instructions on the cast-on and two versions of stars.”

The star can be knit in other gauge, the finished size will then be different. Any yarnweight knit at a firm enough gauge, so that it can hold the stuffing, could be used.

Needles US 2½ / 3 mm circular 24 inches / 60 cm
US 2½ / 3 mm double pointed needles, set of six
tapestry needle & stuffing
