Starfish

Make 2

Rnd 1: ch2, sc in 2nd chain from hook

Rnd 2: inc in each around
Rnd 3: (sc, inc in next) around
Rnd 4: (sc in 2 sts, inc in next) around
Rnd 5: (sc in 3 sts, inc in next) around (attache safety eyes between rnds 5 & 6)
Rnd 6: (sc in 4 sts, inc in next) around
Rnd 7: (sc in 5 sts, inc in next) around
Rnd 8: (sc in 4 sts, inc in next) x5, sc in 2 sts
Fasten off 1st piece, continue working with the second piece
Now you will join the 2 pieces together, while creating the points
Rnd 9: sc in 10 sts, now sc in 10 sts on 2nd piece, join to the 1st stitch with a slst and continue
Rnd 10: sc in 20 sts
Rnd 11: (dec, sc in 8 sts) around
Rnd 12-15: dec, sc in 4 sts, (inc in next, sc in 4 sts) x2, dec
Rnd 16: dec, sc in 14 sts, dec
Rnd 17: dec, sc in 12 sts, dec
Rnd 18: dec, sc in 10 sts, dec
Rnd 19: dec, sc in 8 sts, dec
Rnd 20: dec, sc in 6 sts, dec
Rnd 21: dec, sc in 4 sts, dec
Rnd 22: (dec)
Fasten off

Now to contiue working the reaminder of the points

Join in Rnd 8 and Rep Rnds 9 to 22 - 4 more times. For a total of 5 points
