Going back to round 8, count 3 stitches from the last stitch of round 9, then repeat rounds 9-16 another 4 times (beginning in that 3rd stitch) so you have a total of 5 points on your star.

Hold bold stars together so the wrong sides face each other. Beginning at the top of one point, sc around the outside of the stars (through both stars).
Before finishing sc around the stars, add stuffing so the pillow is firm. Finish the sc and ss into the first sc you made. (Add a bit more stuffing before finishing so the final point has enough stuffing).

Eyes (make 2):

R1. using 4 mm yarn – ch 4, skipping the ch space closest to the hook, sc 2, sc 3 in the last ch space, on the bottom of the stitches you just made, sc 1 on the bottom of the 2nd sc, inc on the bottom of the first sc (8)

R2. (inc, sc1)x4 (12)

R3. inc, sc4, change colour and sc1 in the same space as previous st, inc, sc1, change colour and sc1 in same space as previous st, sc3, inc x2 (18)

R4. inc, sc4, (inc,sc1)x3, sc3, (inc,sc1)x2, inc. Tie off, leaving a long tail for sewing. (24)

Position the eyes onto one side of the pillow, ensuring the white sections are both pointing to the top of the star.
Once you’re happy with the positioning, sew into place.
