A Yarn Bomb Bicycle in France
Not only is this a beauty of a yarn bomb bike, it’s particularly its location that made it so unusual: At the entrance of a medieval castle, Château Beaugency, along the Loire river in France. Nice work, girls.
‘Yarn bomb’ downtown Brighton, UK
I love the contrast of the yarn art, the giant mural and the recycled metal dog all on display at once.
Expect some extreme artiness in Brighton. This is not your usual yarn bomb. This is a tailored piece of art tailored to the location. I love the backdrop of the graffiti wall and the metal mesh dog to complement the yarn flowers and kisses. An absolutely GREAT yarn bomb. One of the best I’ve seen.
‘Yarn bomb’ on Paris flea market
The French can be more subdued at times. And so this may not classify as a yarn bomb in a grand way, but rather a modest, adorable surprise. I love it.
I have shown some other yarn bombs in London the past, I hope you enjoy them all.
Have some yarn bomb images to share? Pop around on the FineCraftGuild Facebook page and show them off! Happy I LOVE YARN day, everyone. Are you guys doing something special today?! Please share (and like this post).
