Good rainbow acrylic yarn? DK

7 replies

I have a small bit left of a white based acrylic yarn that has coloured sections that go through the colours of the rainbow. But I haven't got enough left to knit a pterodactyl, which is what my charge has requested for his birthday (and his sister has requested a fecking union jack one, I haven't worked out how I'll do that yet!)

Does anybody know what would be similar? I've made a rainbow pterodactyl before for a previous charge so have included photos of it for reference!

Lovely pterodactyl! I want to see what you get recommended so am lurking.

Thank you! I made a bright pink one for a friends' pink-obsessed little boy too :) I like the other dinos in my book too but have only managed to make two other dinos as at every charge's birthday/Christmas they all want pterodactyls Hmm Grin

Can you remember anything about the name etc of that yarn?
Jelli beenz by Plymouth yarns looks a bit like it (going by google image search)

www.woolwarehouse.co.uk/yarn/sugar-n-cream-ombres-all-colours

These are worth a look, there are 57 different colour ways.

crazy It was from a charity shop bag with no ball band unfortunately! :(

I will search Jelli Beenz though!

& pook: thanks, none of the ones I can find are quite right though, even the rainbows aren't as bright as I'd like :(

It's always seems to be the yarns that you want more of that you can't find again!
Might be worth asking on Ravelry.

crazy It's a pita! I will try that :) I bought this in the end. I also bought PAtriot for the bloody Union Flag pterodactyl too Hmm
