Decoration
Crocheted rainbow with suspension loop (crochéed in red). Each colour of the rainbow ends in a 12cm long fringe. The rainbow consists of a double layer of crochet. Remains of a blue thread are attached to the suspension loop. 6 colours.
The rainbow was placed on a front door in Glanaman during the Covid-19 pandemic. Rainbows became a symbol of hope and support for NHS workers during the coronavirus crisis, with homes, businesses and public buildings across Wales displaying rainbows on doors and windows in solidarity.
Photographs of this rainbow displayed on a door are object numbers F2020.13.9-10.
