Do you know about yarnbombing? It is knit graffiti. You’re intrigued, aren’t you? Leanne and Mandy have a blog dedicated to it, and a book too! Until you’ve seen it, you won’t believe it.
This is one of the latest examples.
And this one inspires me – there are so many statues in London, they could use some warm accessories… ;)

I’ve seen the bus – it’s amazing! It’s one of those images that, once you’ve seen them, you can never forget. The puppies and kitties are new to me, though.
I have mixed feelings about the whole yarn bombing thing but let’s say I liked most of what I’ve seen. Not sure I’m a sort of person who could do it. Do you think you could?
Not sure I’m the kind of person for ‘street activism’ in general. But I love some of the stuff – like the bus (’cause it’s just amazing) and the puppies – they’re not disrupting anything, and the make a few people smile, so why not? Actually, I was posting this at a public library, and the guy sitting at the computer next to me spotted my screen and started chatting to me about how awesome this looked… :)
Thanks for your advice. I bought a book very similar to the one you suggested. I can’t wait to start!
Yay, can’t wait to see your results! : )
cool stuff =o)
Yarnbombing :D Definitivno hobi za ljude koji imaju previše slobodnog vremena – mislim, koliko je tu različitih uzoraka na onom autobusu, điz! Izgleda genijalno, naravno, ali jedino ako ga ne voze; teško mi je zamisliti da se ne bi zaprljao nakon par dana na ulici, a to bi bila šteta :/
Ako pogledaš originalni post na njihovoj stranici, gdje ima još slika, vidi se da je prednje staklo na busu razbijeno, dakle bus nije uporabljiv mislim.
A to je puno ljudi radilo, ne jedna :)
That red scarf certainly livens up the sculpture. But I always wonder what happens after a few rain showers on all that yarn.
Yeah, maybe it would be interesting to do one on a sculpture near where you live and then walk by every day… Though I’m guessing one day it would just disappear and you still wouldn’t know what happened.
As for the yarn and the rain, I guess it blocks out **really** well :D
I ja bih svog četvorotočkaša tako obukla:)!
