Urban Beach Bracelet

Classic Canadian chair!!
There are many beautiful city beaches in Toronto, and in most of them you can find these colourful comfortable chairs. 
Now imagine yourself watching The Lake Ontario show with numerous sailing boats, ferries, yachts, water taxis and what not! And you are sitting in the front row of the orchestra section! 
And you've got colours.
Which one do you like? Hard to pick!
It was not easy for me to focus on one colour, and I decided to use many of them in these little bits of leftover yarn.

You can find this bracelet yarn in different knitting projects on my website   Artisaknity

This bracelet sitting on the bench at Harbourfront Square

HtO Park. Then my colourful bracelet visited the HtO park with its yellow shade umbrellas beach.
Yellow Umbrellas. WikipediA: The umbrellas in HtO Park were designed to evoke the Georges Seurat painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.. A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte painted in 1884, is Georges Seurat's most famous work. It is a leading example of pointillist technique, executed on a large canvas. Seurat's composition includes a number of Parisians at a park on the banks of the River Seine.
Beautiful Green: he park's standout feature is a sandpit that holds Muskoka chairs. 

Sugar Beach. ​Then my colourful bracelet headed to Sugar Beach with its white sand and baby pink umbrellas.

Chairs. Actually, these outdoor chairs are called Muskoka chairs mostly in Ontario, Canada. In the US they are called Adirondackchairs. The first such chair was designed by Thomas Lee while vacationing in the United States, NY, in the Adirondack Mountains.
Bracelet Base. The base is old leather bracelet. All I needed to do was to weave into it colourful bits of yarn.
Yarn. At the end, the bracelet got a trim :-) and went for a walk :-) ... to Waterfront!

Happy end of summer knitting!!
