Isn’t it nice that when the world is going crazy and you don’t know what tomorrow will bring, we still have crochet? There are still a few stray ends to weave in, but by and large, this rainbow top is done and I look forward to wearing it.
I worked with Camilla Cotton Magic by Ice Yarns and simply loved this yarn. It’s mercerized cotton that’s a bit on the thick side for thread, and it comes in a whole array of dazzling color-changing varieties. Like most cotton yarns, it’s a bit stiff if done in a tight stitch, but a lacy pattern like this one gives it some nice drape.
This item involved quite a bit of improvising and I’m not sure I could recreate it if I tried. I used this diagram for the yoke and this one for the bottom.
I wish all my Jewish readers an easy Yom Kippur fast and a blessed new year.

That is beautiful! I agree, about crochet. Back in the spring of 2020, I started a single stitch afghan. California king size! Maybe 2 feet more. It has been comforting to work on. Especially as I have tried to focus on Bible verses related to peace.

Thank you! ♥ Oh my goodness, I can’t imagine doing a whole afghan in sc, but that must be so meditative.
