Some yarn bombs from Kara in New Hope, PA. Just what kind of reptile is this? Anyone out there know?
It has been quiet around these parts lately, as I (Leanne) have been packing to move apartments and job hunting. I’ve also been working with Arsenal Pulp Press to plan a book tour for my new project Hoopla: The Art of Unexpected Embroidery. If you are a stitcher of any type who lives in one of the tour cities, I hope that you’ll come out to an event and say hello. I’m hoping to meet embroidery artists and yarn artists alike as I make my way through the east and west coasts of the US.
This afternoon, Mandy and I will be meeting Sarah and John, the folks who are putting together the yarn bombing documentary. They are still trying to raise funds for their project, so if you can help them out in any way (money, air miles, etc…), please do. Every penny helps. From what they have sent me, I can tell that they have really taken the time to research the subject (not always the case with others who contact us) and have included significant participants in the yarn bombing movement in their project.

ug! that statue is very strange looking….but i like the yarnbomb!
It looks a lot more like a furry rat.
It’s an aardvark!
I agree, strange statue, but love the yarnbomb.
all the best with the move and job, AND hope you had a great meeting with Sarah and John. I sent my support for the documentary and wish them all the best. Yarnbombing has been a major cultural phenomenon that has expanded in a way that has been exciting to watch.
I know what kind of reptile it is. It is a WELL DRESSED reptile. Great work!!
