Copyright to champygirl June 16, 2010



Materials:

Worsted Weight yarn
Size H hook (5.00mm)
Yarn needle (to weave in ends)

Finish Size: 8”h x 8”w inches

Note: The first CFPST made will be the top point of the star.

Different Stitches:

Incomplete Front Post Double Treble (IFPDT)-Yarn over 3 times, from the front insert hook from front to back around post of specified st and then to the front going thru other side of st, yarn over, draw up a loop, [yarn over, draw through 2 loops] Do this 3 times.


Incomplete Front Post Treble (IFPT)- Yarn over 2 times, from the front insert hook from front to back around post of specified st and then to the front going thru other side of st, yarn over, draw up a loop, [yarn over, draw through 2 loops] Do this 2 times.

Combined Front Post Stitch (CFPST)-This happens when you are instructed in pattern to yarn over and draw thru all 3 loops on hook. When the stitches are combined they count as 1 stitch. (This works for both IFPDT and IFPT)

Note: On Rnd 7 I will instruct you to work in same st as last IFPT. I do this to get you to work in that particular stitch. The stitches are still combined I just couldn’t think of another way to explain working in that st.

Extended Double Crochet (EDC)- Yarn over, insert hook in specified st, yarn over, pull up a loop, yarn over, draw thru loop, [yarn over, draw thru 2 loops on hook] Do this 2 times.

Directions:

Rnd 1: Ch5, join with sl st to first chain to form ring, ch3, 2 dc in ring, ch3, [3 dc in ring, ch3] Do this 4 times, join with sl st to top of beginning chain.

(30dc) (Beginning ch3 counts as dc)

Note: On Rnd 3 you’re working sc into the sts made from Rnd 2 and working IFPDT in dc from Rnd 1.

Rnd 3: Ch1, 1 sc in same st as joining, 1 IFPDT in first dc of Rnd 1, skip next st on Rnd 2 and next dc of Rnd 1, 1 IFPDT in next dc of Rnd 1, yarn over, draw thru all 3 loops on hook, [1 sc in each of the next 5 sts on Rnd 2, 1 IFPDT in next dc of Rnd 1, skip next st on Rnd 2 and next dc of Rnd 1, 1 IFPDT in next dc of Rnd 1, yarn over draw thru all 3 loops] Do this 4 times, 1 sc in each of the next 4 sts, join with sl st to first sc.

That is really cool. Thank you for sharing this, and all the other patterns you design.

 

I was looking at your Photobucket album and am so impressed at all the things you have made. You are really talented in your workmanship as well as your designing. :cheer:cheer:cheer

A wonderful star motif! Thank you for sharing your creation.

 

I just started looking at all the squares you've designed and shared here, and got an urge to make a sampler Champygirl afghan with a bunch of them. . . . . one of these days. Your squares seem to me far more original than many of those published in books. And how lucky we are to have free access to them.
