I know there is a ton of starfish patterns but you wouldn't want to miss out on this pretty one.
For this applique I used a size 1.5 mm hook, and two colors of light fingering yarn. You can use various colors that complement eachother such as orange and yellow, purple and pink, gray and White. In the pattern I name it as a darker shade and a lighter shade of the same color palette.
Hope you enjoy it.
