Yarn bombing is a form of street art or knitting graffiti. I have seen it in different parts of the world but on Day 2 of my Thames walk I spotted these trees which had been bombed.
A more sophisticated piece of fair isle knitting adorned this hand rail.

Never heard of Yarn Bombing before, you have enlightened me.
ReplyDeleteThe Yarn Bombing is new to me, it does look neat. Great shots! Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteI have seen this too in different parts of the world but had never heard a name given to it. So now I know...Yarn Bombing"
ReplyDeleteI have heard of this, and your pictures made me wonder anew: they must pre-knit most of it and then close it up? They sure can't be doing the entire thing while standing there, than they? :-)
ReplyDeleteYarn bombing on my Sunday Selections post on, surprisingly, Sunday.
ReplyDeleteI have not seen Yarn Graffiti. I think they're beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLoving your Thames Walk.
I've never heard of such a thing, but this is awesome! Looks like the trees are all wearing 80s legwarmers. :)
ReplyDeleteI can tell you that I love this. If I could knit, this would be the first thing I would make :). Super shots.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of that before... Love it... The colors just add to the beauty around them. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

These are great. I like this cozy, loving form of graffiti.
ReplyDelete(Thanks for your insights on zoos, too!)
havn´t seen much of this in Sweden. But it looks fun.
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing on how people put their creativity on the trees like that!
ReplyDeleteYes, I have seen it here too, don't know what to think of it. Nature is nature and doesn't need anything added to it. Especially not a knitted branch. But who am I?
ReplyDeleteThis is much fun! I've seen it here, in Perth, ON.
ReplyDeleteCheers from Cottage Country!
