Follow Up: The Fine Art of Yarn Bombing

Earlier this month, I did a post about yarn bombing when I saw it for the first time at a local street fair. Lo and behold, this pastime has made national news in Time Magazine.

You can see more worldwide yarn bombing artistry on the Time.com website.
Here are a few pictures from the same link.

    Filip: You're right, there are lots of pink. Maybe to make it really stand out.

    Rainfield61: Yes, makes everything more pleasant to look at and not so bland.

    Sailor: I think the yarn companies are happy.
