We made these purty little stars to add a little glitter to our great room. Here's how we did it! First collect some cereal boxes, the bigger the better!: I just searched online for a star template, make sure it's a "fat" looking star. Cut it out and trace it on your cardboard, then cut them out.  Draw a straight line from one star point to the opposite side on two of the points, so you have a center to work from. On all the other points work from the center out. Then using a dull pair of scissors or a bone tool if you have one, score all the lines. Where the lines go out to a point, bend the score marks up and the lines that go to the inside...

Pattern: Giant Knitted Christmas Stocking

The measurements for this stocking are on the last pictures and you can download this pattern at the end also!  Enjoy!
