Christmas is past for another year, yet I still have another snowflake star. This one uses the well center and the lacy pointed edge.
However, it fits into the acrylic holder with ease.
Here are the instructions for the tiny, lacy star.
Lacy

F. Bartholomew
about 4 yards
tatting thread
192 knots in this doily

Tie a connecting knot (CK) at the end of each round to form
the last loop of that round.

CK, net 4 knots in all other loops. (36 loops in the round)

Round 3-4
mesh
stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 1 knot in each
loop. (36 loops in each round)
Row 1

Place marker every 6
loops (CK knot counts as a marker).
Net 1 knot in each loop for next 5 loops (counting the CK as
a knot, there are 6 knots along the row). Turn the netting to go across the row
in the other direction. (5 loops in the
round)
Row 2

Row 3

for 4 loops. Do NOT net in the last loop of the row. Turn the netting to go
across the row in the other direction. (4 loops in the round)
Row 4

Net 1 knot in each loop
for 3 loops. Do NOT net in the last loop of the row. Turn the netting to go
across the row in the other direction. (3 loops in the round)
Row 5

Net 1 knot in each loop
for 2 loops. Do NOT net in the last loop of the row. Turn the netting to go
across the row in the other direction. (2 loops in the round)
Row 6

Net 1 knot in 1 loop.
Do NOT net in the last loop of the row. Turn the netting to go across the row
in the other direction. (1 loops in the round)
Next point:
Tie the thread from the needle to the last loop net in row
4. Net into the first free loop to the right of the point.
Net 1 knot into the following 7 loops (total knots tied in
the row equals 8).
Untie the first knot tied into the previously made loop.
Repeat rows 2-8 of the Lacy Pointed Edge.
Here is a breakdown of the number of knots in this star.
