Driving home this evening, I saw something hot pink fluttering over the freeway bridge, blowing in the breeze.

I looked closer and it was a somewhat deconstructed yarnbomb project. It lifted my already pretty high spirits, and so I when I got home I decided to blog about yarnbombing and similar public art projects tonight! For those of you unfamiliar, yarnbombing is basically semi-permanent or temporary graffiti created using yarn. It might contain the artist’s name, it might cover a public area or item, or it might be an installation in a gallery, store, or home. Locally in the Twin Cities, we have a master yarnbomber and artist named HOTTEA. Some of the following are his work, some are not. Enjoy!

And now, for some Munch Madness- Sugarbowl style! It might just be that Easter is on its way, but Jelly Beans beat Pixie Sticks yesterday. Tonight, we move onto the next round of the Sugarbowl… it’s really getting down there!

First up for this round: Reese’s vs. Twix!

Place your votes! What do you all think of  yarn art? Do people do it where you live?
