Deemed subversive art, graffiti, sculpture,
the reclamation of sterile public space this new
art form is a worldwide phenomenon.
The revolution started when Magda Sayeg knit
a colorful cozy for the stop sign outside her clothing
store in Houston in 2005 and has grown exponentially
since then.
This concept of decorating the urban landscape has prompted
an International Yarn Bombing Day to be held on June 9th.
Check out the plethora of images on the web.
They are amazing.

Lovely! How did they get the knitting around the trees? Knit a rectangle and sew them on?
