The spinner was designed for the 4th of July using patriotic colors, but could be made using any color combination. Think of all the holidays, gifts, or even school colors.
The spinner is an easy beginner pattern & easy to take on the go.
The star is for a more advanced knitter & is knitted flat. It does require a little seaming to finish the star.
Fabric stiffener can be used to add a “polished” look.
