– 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.
them dry quicker.
When
your star is dry, it is ready to glue
on your Tree Topper.
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,
and gently lay the crochet star on,
Pressing
with your fingers, ease the star in place.
Be

Glue

Then,
place on top of your tree.
