The background of this picture is a great match, and so is this name to a great yarn. I think this colourway could be a pin up! Watch the video to whitness the stars that shimmer in the yarn!

Rita Hayworth (born Margarita Carmen Cansino; October 17, 1918 – May 14, 1987) was an American actress, dancer, and pin-up girl. She achieved fame in the 1940s as one of the top stars of the Golden Age of Hollywood, and appeared in 61 films in total over 37 years. The press coined the term "The Love Goddess" to describe Hayworth, after she had become the most glamorous screen idol of the 1940s. She was the top pin-up girl for GIs during World War II. It was also rumored that she had a negative feeling towards the fact that America would paint her face on atomic bombs during testing. America's reasoning was because, "She's a bombshell." She called for a press conference to condemn these actions but was convinced by Harry Cohn that it would negatively impact her career.
