A pattern of stars which is not an official constellation (although often they are part of constellations) is called an asterism. The Big Dipper is an asterism; it is actually part of the constellation Ursa Major, "The Large Bear". Another asterism is the Summer Triangle, three bright stars which are actually part of three different constellations.
