September Rainbows

Hey there!

Where have I been?  I've been curled up crocheting like a crazy lady.  And other than the stiff neck and sore shoulders I have no complaints; more importantly, I have a happy Krista to show for my week's work.

Krista LOVES rainbows... especially in the form of rainbow sweaters.  I knit her a sweater last year from some variegated yarn that she adored but sadly had outgrown.  She pointed this out to me very matter of factly before sweetly asking me for a new rainbow sweater.  I had come across this crochet sweater pattern on pinterest from the very talented Vendula a while back and decided to give it a go as I had plenty of pretty cotton yarn leftover from my horse jumper bonnet making last spring - I still make these on order if you know of anyone looking for a custom made horse show bonnet:

Capri - Super pony and still one of our favourite boys.

Alright, so I happily crocheted away changing colours as  I liked and felt like the end of the sweater was surely in sight... until I remembered there were still yarn ends to weave in and secure!


What a tedious job this is!!  But I persevered and Friday morning I had a very happy little girl in a colourful sweater making her way to the school bus!



 Yeah.. her hair is a bit messy because my wrists and arms were a bit too sore to hold the brush and tame the mane.  ;)  Focus on the smile (and the sweater.. lol)

Happy Monday!
Jeanette
