Yarn bombing, yarn storming, guerrilla knitting, urban knitting or graffiti knitting, call it what you will, we think yarn bombing is brilliant, so much so, we’ve had a go and who knows, maybe some will feature in our new window display, keep your eyes peeled!
(We’re still keeping it seasonal of course with a summer sport twist so we had a go with these old rackets).
Of course, we’re yarn bombing on a small scale, but will a little practice and some serious crocheting sessions, maybe we can work up to something more like this:
Please share your examples of yarn bombing which you’ve either stumbled across or done yourself in the comments, we’d love to see what’s inspired you or what knitting feats you’ve been getting up to.
And if you’re new to yarn bombing or fancy trying something a little more ambitious than normal, then you’ll be pleased to know we are fully stocked up with wool and yarn ranging from: lace weight to scarf yarn, with ranges from brands such as Debbie Bliss, Sirdar, Louisa Harding Katia, Opal and Lang.
And of course, all our knitting wools come in a variety of weights – 2 ply, 3 ply, 4 ply, aran, chunky, super chunky and double knit.
So there’s no reason not to be knitting, be it small, or a little bigger!
