Lovely colours, will be a joy to wear. I prefer knitting jumpers too for the same reason, to avoid the button-band!!!
Re: I knitted a rainbow!
How lovely and bright - you could never feel anything other than happy in this cardigan!

That's gorgeous, so cheerful and a lovely line, if that's the right word

Well at least a vertical rainbow will be different! Bet it will be just as lovely as the cardigan too.

Next time you will have to knot an arched pullover to resemble the real rainbow

Wendy, that looks stunning! The variegated yarn looks so nice, and "happy"!
We should have a KAL for a jumper or cardigan, and you could do it for us..
anyway, well done on the knitting!

Re: I knitted a rainbow!
Looks great. I haven't got a clue how to knit. Think I better stick to my cross stitch!

Re: I knitted a rainbow!
I bought some random dyed pure wool from an ebay seller.

Excellent to knit and I had so much I managed to knit a cardigan and a jumper from 10 100g balls! She delivered very promptly from Lithuania!
I'm about to buy more from her.
I shall post a piccy of the jumper ASAP!

Yes, please! *finds magic bench, and gets *
Re: I knitted a rainbow!
That's very impressive! I can knit, but only flat pieces such as scarves and afghans.
