It’s not secret to anyone familiar with my designs that I love a good “graynbow” (gray+ rainbow combo), so I am sure no one is surprised at yet another way to work graynbow into their handmade wardrobe. But for me, I always need a reminder to look for the rainbows in the darker times! (The name “Through the Rain” is taken from an old 1800’s hymn called
“Oh Love That Will Not Let Me Go” )

Inspired by mosaic knitting, I wanted to create a similarly mesmerizing stitch motif with crochet. BUT good news, it’s NOT colorwork- only one color at a time! This is a great project for mini skeins or scraps, even gradient cakes- the color combinations are truly endless!
