Yarn Bombing!

What is Yarn Bombing I hear you say- for those of you that are not familiar with this term Yarn bombing is a word used to describe a new craze that uses hand knitted and crotchet pieces to create colourful and often quirky graffiti/street art instead of the usual media such as spray paint or chalk
.
It appears the yarn bombers have taken a particular liking to an area local to me, Saltburn. Back in March the yarn bombers hit the local pier with a spectacular knitted display of the the Olympics which was reported to be a whopping 50 feet long!


It was an amazing display of lots of brightly coloured characters which appeared to be participating in a variety of Olympic events.

This week is appears the yarn bombers have hit the pier again with a royal themed display just in time for the Jubilee celebrations.


Such a cute way to showcase your talent! Great work mystery yarn bomber! Lovely way to bring the community together and put a smile on everyones face.
