Family legend has it that my relatives came from Wales. This must be why I felt an instant attachment to Yarn Bombing on Hay-on-Wye.
This mysterious knitter/crocheter says “I am hoping to inspire people, regardless of age or gender, to take up crochet and knitting, and to share their art!” Sounds like a good mission to me.
I particularly love the wonderful crochet piece that resembles a tidal pool on the ‘honesty bookshop’. Honestly, why doesn’t every town have a book store like this?

Be sure to take the quiz on the front page (only open for another 1204 days!) “Do you appreciate the art and intention of yarn bombing?” Indeed.
PS. If you are in the Denver area, don’t forget about the Ladies Fancywork/Yarn Bombing book event tomorrow night at Fancy Tiger!
