Circular baby blanket help

I tried knitting the knitted starghan on Ravelry and for some reason kept coming up with 6 points instead of 5…so, can someone help me with the basics to make my own circular blanket or help me figure out what I did wrong on the starghan? Thank you
I hope this URL works

Your link didn’t work. It has an extra http in it.

I’m not sure what you did. Did you cast on a different amount to make a different size or something?
