Happy Hubby Pentacle Necklace.
My husband has had this metal pentacle necklace for quite a while, and one day I decided to play with it. He loved it, and so it stayed. I used black Patons Grace 100% mercerized cotton and an E hook and just single stitched around. For the points of the star (which lay on top of the circle) I just tucked them back a bit. I started on the1/5 of the circle to the right of the loop and chained 1 behind it. I then threaded red Patons Grace though the chain, going back over a few links on the end to secure. This was done sometime in summer, and it's still completely intact. Well, the clasp broke, but that has nothing to do with the crochet hehe.
Blessed Be and Happy Hooking!
Autumn Song Pentacle Coaster
So as you can see this coaster isn't very big, but it could also make a cute patch or add a hanging loop and hang it as an ornament. For this I used Serenity Garden yarn in Gemstones and a F hook. This yarn changes color very slowly, but each stitch is a different shade, making for a gorgeous medley of color. Here is the pattern for the pentacle.
Materials:
Any weight yarn
2 colors (or do the whole thing in one color, or mix it up!
Matching hook
sk-skip
ch-chain
sl- slip stitch
sc- single Crochet
dc- double crochet
Directions:

1. Sc in loop 10 times join to begining with sl
2.* Ch. 7 sk next sc sl in next sc* repeat 4 more times (5 loops formed) join begining with sl.
3.* in ch7 sc 4 times, ch 3 ,sc 4 times* around in all loops tie off
4. with color 2 attach to any star pt in loop* ch 8 and sc in next star pt* repeat around join with beg sc
5. Ch 3 dc in same sc(2dc),* in ch 8 loop dc 10 , 2 dc in sc* repeat around join with sl in beginning ch3
It works up really quickly and this yarn just makes gorgeous stars. Blessed Be and Happy Hooking!
