hole, pick up 1 st in the side on the last of the 6 sts, pick up 1 st in same ch as the
last of the 6 sts was picked up in, 1 st in each of the next 2 ch = 6 sts on hook,
make a YO and pull through all 6 sts, ch 1 *, repeat from *-* until last st. Work 1 hdc
in last ch. Turn.
ROW 2 (WS): 2 ch (= 1 hdc), work 2 hdc in every "star hole", finish row with 1 hdc in
last st. Turn. There are now 21-23 stars on row and 1 hdc in each side.
