Rainbow Towel Holder Crochet Pattern

rainbow towel holder

I think it’s safe to say that everyone loves rainbows. They are a beautiful and awe-inspiring sight, and they always seem to bring a smile to people’s faces. There’s something about the way the colors of the rainbow blend together that is just mesmerizing. And the fact that they are a symbol of hope and promise makes them even more special.

I think one of the reasons why rainbows are so popular is because they are a reminder that even after a storm, there is always sunshine on the other side. They represent hope and new beginnings, and they give us the strength to keep going even when things are tough.

I’m so glad that rainbows are a part of our world. They make it a more beautiful and hopeful place.

To celebrate the release of my new book, Crochet a Rainbow, I’ve come up with another rainbow design for your kitchen – Rainbow Towel Holder.

Unicorn Bobblehead Crochet Pattern

Unicorn Bobblehead Crochet Pattern

National Bobblehead Day

Do you like bobbleheads? My husband collects them, mostly of sports figures. When we travel, though, we do try to find one from any new city that we visit. We have a Royal Guard bobblehead from London and an Al Capone bobblehead from San Francisco.

I decided to make a unicorn bobblehead, just to see if a crochet bobblehead was possible. The resulting unicorn is just too cute. I hope you enjoy it too. This design requires wire and a wooden dowel for assembly, so it’s not suitable as a children’s toy. It would make a great decor item for a little girl’s room or a nursery.

https://youtu.be/HKgVhh-ORkM

Materials:

Sport weight (or baby weight) yarn

1.5 oz. white

0.1 oz. tan

Small amounts, pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, gold

Two 15-mm oval googly eyes

20-gauge craft wire
