movin' onto crochet.....

This I am making for my sister....I bought this yarn for someone else and didn't lke it...but my sister did...I think the varigated is too light to complete the final star..... I think it's ok...I want to do it in darker colors.... Here's the pattern...... I LOVED it ans HAD to have it...I got it on Ebay for $18.00...it's from th e'80's and out of print...here http://www.anniesattic.com brought it back because it's so popular...yep for $5.99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Oh dear lord
