Ray of Sunshine Knitting Pattern

By: Louise Walker from sincerelylouise.co.uk

"Last year I designed a giant rainbow pattern, as a big thank you to all the key workers during the pandemic. I wanted to knit my rainbow a friend, and now more than ever, we need some sunshine. Here's my knitted ray of sunshine. I recommend using a chunky yarn, but you can use different weights of yarn to make a bigger or smaller sunshine. A full list of recommended materials are in the pattern. I displayed mine in my window, but you could also use it as a cushion. "
