“You don’t have to take my word for it…”
--LeVar Burton
I loved Reading Rainbow as a child. I love it as an adult. I have the Skybrary app on my tablet, and I listen to just about any audio book, LeVar Burton narrates. I am a fan.

So, although you can, and should, use whatever colors you like, in creating the stripey section of this pattern, these right here… these are the “Rainbow Reading” gloves.
