Da Bomb!

Hey, did you know that today, June 8, 2013, is International Yarn Bombing Day? Yeah, we didn't think so! So there you go...if you suddenly see an explosion of oddly shaped tea cozies around town this weekend you'll know why!

 

So how is it that we're in the know about this rather under-the-radar event? Well, we have Toronto's always fascinating Spacing magazine to thank. You can have a read for yourself here for part 1, and here for part 2.

 

And here's a look at some tree- bombing we ran across in Buenos Aires last October. We love that they even crocheted handles so as not to damage the tree!

 

Break out those needles!
