Have You Heard of Yarn Bombing?

Original post by Sarah @ Renewed Upon a Dream, please visit her website for more great ideas!”

My home computer is still dead, and my new Dell laptop hasn’t made it’s arrival yet, so I’m still kinda computer-less   It’s really cramping my style.  I was supposed to be showing you all of my awesome new eyeglasses today, but without a home computer, it’s not possible for me to download & edit the photos I took of them, so it’ll have to wait.  Maybe tomorrow or Wednesday?  See, my style is officially cramped.  I gotta quick-write this blog during my lunch hour at work…

So today, I shall talk about something I just discovered today!  On the front page of today’s University of Michigan web page is a link to a story about some students yarn bombing the steps to one of the buildings on the Diag for a class project.  I had to click over to see what this yarn bombing was all about.  It looks like fun!  See the students’ work-

So now that I’m seeing pretty colorful yarn-y-ness, I had to check out the google & the pinterest to see if I could find more about this yarn bombing thing!  Am I just behind the times on this one?  I found tons of pictures of lots of different things being yarn bombed!

Are you kidding?!  I totally want to do this, but I don’t have the skills.  Maybe something smaller scale?

Okay, maybe these kind of shenanigans requires a team effort.  Anyone want to team up with me?

Is this stuff legal?

This one I could actually do:

I think this lady needs a little more than just a leg-warmer…

Ahhhh!  It’s a yarn bombing gargoyle!  Love him!

Okay okay last one

Oops I lied… now one more

See, how could I not include that one?

Have you ever done this kind of thing?  If you have, you are officially awesome in my book.  Send me pictures!!!!

Here’s to hoping my computer gets delivered sooooon!
