Y is for Yarn Bombing
Yarn bombing or Guerilla Knitting as it is also known is one of my favourite things as it always makes me smile! Imagine my reaction when I discovered that the exterior of York Art Gallery had been covered in the stuff whilst I was away on holiday. Knitted pigeons had lined the window sills alongside the real pigeons, and the entire façade was covered in random swathes of brightly covered wool. I hurried down on my return to York to catch sight of the last remaining evidence - this bombed bicycle propped up against one of the gallery columns.
