I’ve been watching the Yarn Bomb Yukon project with great interest. Jessica, Vanessa, and Bree-Ann have dedicated themselves to a variety of public yarn bombing projects, most notably a DC-3 plane at the Yukon Transportation Museum.
While they gear up for their big yarn bombing project on August 11th, they are also yarn bombing other items as well. Behold Lenore the 1969 GMC 4×4 Truck (all images taken from yarnbombyukon.wordpress.com):

We believe in giving credit where credit is due, even in the case of anonymous graffiti art.
The images that we publish on yarnbombing.com have been sent to us by interview subjects, photographers and yarn bombers in the good faith that we will credit material according to their wishes.
If you are going to lift an image from this site, take the time to link back to the sources that we link to - or better yet, get in touch with the photographer to ask their permission.

I participated in this project.
I was not there to assemble it, but mailed my pieces. You can watch this video to see how it was done.
