The Star Stitch is really super duper easy, even though the end result makes you look very clever...
Cast on in multiples of 4, then add one stitch at the end.
Row 1: (right side) KNIT
Row 2: P1, *MS, P1, rep from * to end.
Row 3. KNIT
Row 4: P3, MS, *P1, MS, rep from * to last 3 sts, P3.
And thats it!
To MS(make star) You just Purl 3 tog, leaving the stitches on the left hand needle, wrap the yarn around the needle, then purl through the same three stitches again.
That sounds a little complicated, but once you've done it you'll see how truely simple it is.
I knitted the teeny green purse in the round, and in this pattern the design is knit on the purl side, so I just knitted it inside out. The knit rows would be purled.
