LESSON 152: STAR STITCH

Tutorial para Punto de Estrella:

Here’s the Tutorial for Star Stitchanother proposal of fantasy stitch that we propose you in Bordarycantar.com.

You can work with the desired number of stitches, but six, eight or ten are recommended, Mark the fabric with a circle divided by radial lines. On a firm fabric, the center hole can be enlarged with an awl or blunt-pointed needle.

What is it used for?

Used randomly scattered regularly as filler, or worked individually to represent daisy-like flowers or stars.

Works in any direction:

How do you do that?

Fig. A: Pull the needle out at 1, slip it in at 2, pull it out at 4 and slip it in at 2. Continue in this manner around the circle. All stitches should end in the same center hole.

Repeat around the circle, alternating stitches and stitches in the center.

Do not work more than 10 radial stitches otherwise the center will not be smooth.

Here is a schematic drawing of the points:

Materials to sew with the Star Stitch tutorial:

• You need a sharp pointed needle. In your trusted haberdashery they can advise you on this.
• Thimble, we know that it is not easy to get used to it, but the earlier you adapt, the better, you will avoid many punctures.
• Special thread for sewing. Or you can also use fine crochet yarn if it is to decorate something
• Frame, there are made of wood, plastic and silicone. Lately I spend the silicone ones because I like them better, but that goes to taste.
• Light, the more the better and to be able to be natural
