We all need a little love and rainbows in our lives. I wrote this pattern to get a little happiness out into the world, one rainbow at a time. This is a fun, simple colorwork pattern that is easy to memorize. This pattern was specifically designed to showcase the rainbow in your yarn stash.

Thank you to rene07 for her incredible help with the Korean translation!
