Find the updated Version

 At This LINK

This is the perfect shawl to wear when the weather turns chilly.

 It is elegant and warm.

Wear it over a Fancy dress or with jeans and Sweater.

I called this design The Blessings Ombre Shawl

 because I am wearing this one

 for our Thanksgiving get together.
A time of sharing thankfulnes sand blessings.

The yarn I used is called

 Caron Simply Soft - Gold Ombre

I love the flow of the shades of Gold and Orange.

It reminds me of a goldfish with the reflection from the water
 shimmering on it. It is bright and Fallish.

I put the skill for this pattern at "Easy",

 because it is basically rows of repeat with increases.

And I think you will find it stitches up pretty fast.

R: 6 – Option 2 - If you want 4 of your points to be longer.

You can triple crochet in the place of the dcs, on every other point.

Weave in all your ends.

Blocking:

It is a Good Idea to block your star.

Dampen the star with a squirt bottle of plain water,

Lay it on a towel, shaping the points.

You can use pins to pin the points if needed.

I set my items on the dryer when blocking to help 
them dry quicker.

 You can set it in the sun, also.

When your star is dry, it is ready to glue 
on your Tree Topper.

Plug in your Glue gun and put the glue stick in it.

I practiced laying my star on the topper, 
several times to get it perfect.

Once you are happy with the placement.

Put the Glue on the Tree Topper, 
and gently lay the crochet star on,

Pressing with your fingers, ease the star in place.

Be careful not to burn your fingers.

Glue your buttons in place. Give it a few minutes to dry,

Then, place on top of your tree.

R: 6 - Option 2                 R: 6 - Option 1

I am really liking how my Yarnie Christmas Tree

is coming along.

But it still needs a lot more Yarnie Goodness.
