I know there is someone who posts here who also has a blog I read (but I've forgotten who it is) who sometimes knits and crochets things that she yarn bombs.

I just wanted to share with her the yarn bombing I came across in Cambridge today! here

Does anyone know who did this? I love it! Grin

I think it's Mmelindor if I'm not mistaken! Grin

Or it could be someone else, haha! I just remember reading one of their posts recently about yarn bombing!

This is her website (if we are thinking of the same person!), not sure of her MN name though Grin

Love what she did with the bollards with stitchthis in Cheltenham!

I am getting inspired to take it up myself!

Wow, that's fantastic. Love yarn bombing - such a happy thing to do for others.

Dilly is your most infamous yarn bomber

Stitchthis · 20/07/2012 06:43

We shld do a coordinated MN bomb.....Dilly?!!

Stitchthis · 20/07/2012 07:59

Actually the more I think about it the more I fancy it....a back to school bomb perhaps?! Anyone interested?

confusedpixie · 20/07/2012 19:02

I would totally join in an mn bomb :)

Loved the bicycle rail bonds, cute!

Helloooo I'm here! OMDB I have seen the yarn bombing on your blog, looks great.

I should add that Stitch this was heavily involved in my latest yarn bombing here :)

A Mumsnet mass yarn bombing would be great (though Stitch This, don't forget we have the Lit Fest project too, but that is October).

What sort of thing were you thinking? All doing the same thing, or just all doing it at the same time?

Stitchthis · 21/07/2012 13:56

Same time I think. What about yb-ing the local school gates? A back to school theme?

Stitchthis · 23/07/2012 17:48

If anyone is interested can you add a message? Ta

Just seen some Dutch yarn bombing - Leiden, Haarlem & The Hague. brilliant!

Stitchthis · 30/07/2012 06:58

This doesn't appear to have legs so I'll shelve it for now

Sorry, was away with work last week. Might need a new thread to drum up interest.
