[Noisebridge-discuss] yarn bombs

[Jared Dunne]

Yes, I dig it also.  I guess some of the original yarn bombers were hitting
all these trees around some town. The local authorities sorta freaked and
some reason found it very subversive and 'terrorist'-y. I personally like
the idea of trees with sweaters. Perhaps it's inhumane to force them to wear
warm clothes during global warming? Bike racks seem like fair game though..

   at the top of the rack was a little knitted

   there's this movement of people that are
knitting things and sneaking up on doorways and
fences and trees and wrapping their knitstuff
around them and quick-binding the two ends.
   yeah, even trees, some of the yarn bombs
are really big.

   's news to me. tho't you'd like to know.
