Star of Earth
Discover the enchanting tale of The Star of Earth, a captivating Chippewa story that inspires this beautiful knitting pattern. In the tale, a bright star journeys across the sky, gazing longingly down toward Earth to watch children at play. The star yearns to experience the vibrant beauty of the Earth firsthand. Her first attempts to find a home among the flowers on the prairie were thwarted by the fear of being trampled by majestic buffalo. Next, she sought refuge among the mountain roses, but the steep cliffs and hidden rocks kept her out of sight from the children below. Finally, she came upon a serene water lily gracefully floating on a tranquil lake. Here, the star made her home, allowing her to watch both the shimmering stars above and the beloved people below, as their canoes glided across the water.
