I’ve recently won a yarn bombing commission from Wolverhampton Art Gallery to decorate St Peters Park in Wolverhampton.
I’ll be holding a series of workshops around various venues in Wolverhampton teaching people how to knit and getting them to help me produce the knitting needed for the installation.
The project – Park Your Yarn has its own dedicated tumblr site http://parkyouryarn.tumblr.com/
For more information on how to get involved visit the site.
Can’t help but wonder about how the weather might adversely affect the project ??? Particularly on seats 😦
We’re using acrylic wool which is very resistant to weathering. Also deterioration is part of knit graffiti
I shall be there on 24th march knitting needles akimbo ….. hope its OK to blog about the event on my two blog http://itsallfiddlefart.blogspot.co.uk/
and http://mumsmonkey.blogspot.co.uk/ over the next week. Think this is such a brilliant idea ….. and can’t wait to be just a small part of it!
