About this pattern

A big golden star dozes off in a navy night sky, with rosy cheeks and closed eyes. Only four colors are used, so changes are simple. The graphgan chart is 64 × 68 squares and gives a small cushion, around 16 × 15 in in worsted yarn. Pop it on a crib-side chair, a bedtime reading nook or a moon-and-stars bedroom.
