It started out as an attempt to protect trees from a certain parasite, and turned into a famous public art movement.Yarn bombing now has a different goal: found mostly in the city, it's meant to liven and brighten a boring and bleak environment. This one was created in a public transportation bus. Can you imagine people's thoughts and expressions as Andrew was knitting away at the pole? Yarn Bombing is a thrilling experience which requires mastery in the technique as well as speed and creativity.
