In Woolly Wonder!

Imagine walking down the street on a chilly morning and finding the lampposts cozy in colorful knitwear, and the trees dressed in bright, woolly jumpers.

Once Upon a Stitch: The First Loop

It all began with a humble notion that public fixtures could use a little warming up. Yarn bombing first sprouted in the early 2000s, with crafty rebels like Magda Sayeg, who saw a single doorknob in need of a knit hat. From there, it snowballed into a global movement, covering everything from park benches in Paris to buses in Brazil with yarn.

Guerrilla Knitters: The Early Knitwork
