Yarn Bombed Cutie





Last year we did a post on some yarn bombing that I had seen in Berkeley... super fun but wait, the Italians have one-upped us! This was done by (as you can guess by the zigzag pattern) Missoni to a reproduciton of Michelangelo's David. So adorable is he in the pattern it made me wonder: wouldn't the real statue be cute (and a bit less chilly) in Missoni too? Hello There Cutie!!!   xxxo

Yarn Bombing is Cutie



About a year ago, I noticed in Berkeley public spaces and objects being covered in brightly knitted yarn sweater. This art movement, Yarn Bombing, is now being touted as the hip form of urban vandalism worldwide. Referred to also as Grandma Graffiti, it is the guerilla crocheting of buildings, bike racks, stairs, statues, trees, lampposts and...? Super Cutie, right? xxxo
