Last week I showed the Contrast Star with 5 points. While the two stars have the same number of rows, this one has 630 knots, takes 8 yards of tatting thread to make, and is 2.75 inches in diameter.
Here are the instructions:
Remember to tie a connecting knot (CK) at the end of each round to form the last loop of that round.
Design Center
Round 1
mesh stick: #3 knitting needle
Form a grommet with 30 loops, the last one tied by hand with a connecting knot (CK). (30 loops in the round)
Rounds 2-5
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 1 knot in each loop. (30 loops in each round)
Round 6
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 4 loops; repeat, end with net 1 knot in each loop for 3 loops. (36 loops in the round)
Round 7
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in next loop, net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 3 loops; repeat, end with net 1 knot in each loop for 2 loops. (48 loops in the round)
Round 8
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 4 loops, net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 2 loops; repeat, end with net 1 knot in each loop for 1 loop. (60 loops in each round)
Round 9
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 7 loops, net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in the next loop; repeat, end with net 1 knot in last loop. (72 loops in the round)
Round 10
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 1 more knot in loop formed by CK, net 2 knots in the next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 10 loops, *net 2 knots in each loop for 2 loops, net 1 knot in each loop for 10 loops*; repeat from * to *. (84 loops in the round)
Round 11
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 1 knot in next loop, *net 2 knots in next loop, net 1 knot in each loop for 13 loops*; repeat from * to *. (90 loops in the round)
Round 12
mesh stick: #0 knitting needle
Net 1 knot in each loop. (90 loops in the round)
