i've got three malabrigo rainbow projects to share today, if you can believe that (and i'm sure you can). by the way, all of these projects are from the same set of rainbow malabrigo skeins. nothing like using up every last bit of yarn from sets like this.
first up is maya's completed rainbow poncho, which turned out just perfect. an unbelievably simple pattern (straight stockinette with garter stitch border) and i couldn't be happier with the results. link to pattern and details on my ravelry page here. maya is looking forward to wearing this poncho in the cooler months ahead.
next is the first of many hoodies, a rainbow hoodie for maya (to match her poncho), using a pattern by lyalya. before she made the pattern available for sale, i had custom ordered several of these from her etsy shop and we absolutely adore them. i love the gnome-like shape and this is the easiest hat to get on and stay on. perfect for keeping little ears and necks warm. i've got several in my ravelry queue for christmas presents so you'll definitely be seeing more of these!
and last, but not least, i'm just starting a rainbow booga bag knit-along with my knitting buddies...and i'm so excited about it. i'm actually planning on adjusting the strap placement on this bag and making it into a backpack for maya. project details can be followed here. this is going to be a fun knit-along!
happy wednesday to all...
