Wordless Wednesday (Flaunt 2012 Edition)

Back in July, my mother-in-law Barb was knitting away while the family shared a beach house. The final product was a bit hard to conceptualize — something about “yarn covered trees.”

A visit to Thomasville’s Flaunt 2012, an “Upcycle Downtown” collaborative arts initiative, brought it all to life:

 And gave us the gift of an evening that treated the sense of touch in addition to the sense of sight!

 For pictures of many other “yarn bombed” trees and dresses made of upcycled materials, visit this link!

      Rosey – it is TRULY amazing. There was lots of cool art there, but her stitches are incredibly uniform! It was a cool exhibit.
