Then as she did not have the pattern she was trying to do by her thinking, this lady never finished that quilt but forgot about it, and left it in a sack inside her crochet closet. After some time passed, her granddaughter saw a crochet work begun with the colors of a rainbow.
Beginner Crochet Projects
Nowadays the rainbow is in all the colors of the girls, crochet unicorns, unicorn bags, bows for rainbow hair. The girl felt very happy, and asked her grandmother to complete the work she had begun so many years ago. That girl's grandmother felt so happy that she could finish a job she loved so much. Quickly she resumed that work, with far more love than the first.
And the whole excited girl believed that the grandmother could do a beautiful job. When the girl's grandmother finished work that beautiful surprise was a crocheted quilt all worked, with rainbow, imagine the happiness of that girl.

A relic, a work done with love, for our day. This story is true, and I am very proud to be able to count on so much emotion for you. The crochet goes beyond generations, breaks challenges, supports time. An ancient art that until today we can see in designers, contemporary fashion, current fashion.
The colors of the rainbow crochet bring together the finish of a crochet pattern well known by crocheters that is the zigzag. I thought the finish was amazing. An Afghan blanket as it is is a very refined gift for anyone.

BLOCKING: Pin each fan to measurements on a padded surface: cover with a damp cloth and allow to dry; do not press.
ASSEMBLY: With right side up,invert the 3 white fans so that last pcn st row is at bottom edge of afghan. Select the multi-colored fans of row 2( half fan 2, two full fans and half fan 1) sew them to Row 1 with right side up, along adjoining edges working through back loops only of each st.. In the same way, sew the 3 multi-colored fans of row 3 in between the fans of row 2. Rep rows 2 and 3, six times more, joining each fan to the previous row. I didn’t like how the sides looked when I got it finished so I did a row of sc then a row of popcorn sitches. You will need an exta skein of white yarn to do this. It’s a lot more work to finish it this way but the end result is beautiful. Also I whipped stitched blocks together to assemble.
