The motif design for this is inspired by the Guiding
Star symbol which is known in many cultures - leading
us and lighting the way to our goal in life.
In the northern hemisphere the pre-eminent bright
star used in celestial navigation is the Pole Star or
Polaris (Alpha Ursae Minoris), indicating the approximate
direction of north.
Many traditional fairisle knitting motifs feature a star
a favourite with knitters – as it lends itself so well to
the stranded colour work technique.
