Why are there so many crochet projects about rainbows?
And what's on the other side?
OK, so now that the cotton stash is gone,
it's time for the biggest stash-busting challenge of all:
The Acrylic Stash:
There's a lot of it and I would like to bust it all and then replace it with an upgrade.
In fact, an upgrade is on it's way, but before it arrives this must all be gone.
Aweh, the pressure of the self-imposed rules!
(Good thing it's coming from overseas to give me plenty of time. )

First, I like to start with colors that make sense to me and nothing makes more sense than a rainbow!
Then a pattern purchased from Churchmouse here:
A Vintage Ripple afghan of the rainbow colors should certainly bust a bunch of yarn.
Stay tuned for the "Ta Dah" of this project. :-)

It's going to be beautiful Astri, can't wait to see it when it's done, you do realise that when your new upgraded stash does arrive you will have to bust that too don't you haha

J'aime beaucoup toutes ces couleurs si bien réunies, c'est très joli, un arc-en-ciel lumineux !!!Bon week-end ;-)
ReplyDeleteFint mønster på regnbueteppet ditt! Ja, kvifor er vi så opptatt av regnbuen? Kanskje fordi den er uendeleg vakker:) Eg held iallfall også på med eit teppe i regnbuens fargar;) Det er i ull, og vart påbegynt for 2 år sidan.....
ReplyDeleteYour rainbow afghan will be gorgeous, Astri! Love the way the interspersed zig zag white sets off the other colours. How lovely to have a new stash on its way too! Happy Hooky Weekend! E x

Thank you for the comments regarding the Rainbow blanket. So nice you all to stop by and leave a comment. The stash is decreasing as I type (well sort of), and yes it will be replaced with more stash. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHei Astri:) Her kommer en hilsen fra Norge! Datt plutselig innom bloggen din og lurte litt på den headeren med norske og amrikanske flagg ,hi,hi,veldig fin den der:))
ReplyDeleteHerlige heklede ting du viser og inspirerer andre med,selv kan jeg ikke hekle så den jobben gjør svigermor for meg. Har veldig lyst til å prøve selv også men er redd det kan ta litt tid:)Ønsker deg en fin dag "over there":)
Klem Vibeke
I love the colours in your crochet rug.. Your work is always colourful and cheery :))
ReplyDeleteNydelig teppe du holder på med! Regnbuens farger er både fristende og vakre, og så blir man så glad av farger! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I love it! I may just have to purchase that pattern!
