I made this last week. I had the idea after seeing the Beth's Little Star pattern.
I'm not sure I started the pattern correctly as it was a bit difficult to understand. But I made it work! Here's a couple more shots. (All images are clickable to enlarge)
I wanted it to resemble the House scarves everybody makes. The center has 6 rows of claret red, (7 if you count the 5-"spoked" beginning), 2 rows of Poppy (it's really a gold color), 2 rows of red, 2 rows of gold, 6 red, then 2-2-2 again, then 4 rows of red.
I edged it using a shell stitch of 6 clusters each, (with 8 clusters at the star tips). There are a total of nine shells along each star's "arms". Hope you all understand that.
I thought of adding tassels to the tips. Maybe I still will. I always seem to go over the top. LOL!!!!
I'd like to do one star for each House eventually.
I'm not even sure what Ravenclaw's colors are.
Ravenclaw is blue and bronze in the books, but was changed to blue and silver for the movies.
