Rainbow is my favorite color! You can make a simple rainbow with one stripe of each color or a more gradual one with several versions of each color. Here are dozens of FREE rainbow projects to knit, crochet, and craft from Yarnspirations for baby blankets, throws, home decor items, and things to wear!
