Stars in a Night Sky Accessories
From $10.00
These are accessory patterns that go with the Stars in a Winter’s Sky sweater pattern. The cowl is shown in the smallest size and the hat is shown in the medium size.
I have included Ptolemy’s 48 constellations as well as the big dipper by itself. For the sample I chose constellations that are visible in the northern hemisphere in autumn and winter.
Charts can be worked either direction. The brightest star can be worked as a larger bobble, if so desired.
