Yarn Bomb Your Pics!
Get creative at the library this summer! Come to the Bloor/Gladstone branch on Monday July 14, 2-4 pm, and learn how to yarn bomb your pics!
Yarn bombing is a little like graffiti, but with knitting instead of spray paint.
We've posted about yarn bombing on this blog a few times last summer. Yarn bombing can'take many forms, but generally it involves attaching a handmade knitted item to an object in a public space – like a tree, a lamppost, a bicycle – even a bridge.
Some people take part in yarn bombing because they want to make everyday life more beautiful, fun, or surprising; others do it because of its connection with political street art and guerilla activism.
Yarn bombing can also be used as a way to embellish old photographs, to modify make them more beautiful, or surprising, or even political in some way.
Join us at the Bloor/Gladstone branch on Monday July 14, 2-4 pm, and take your pics to a whole new level. Just bring a photograph that you want to embellish and we'll show you how to do the rest!
Register in the branch or call 416-393-7674.

I would love to be apart of this, but I live so far 🙁
The other week, my friend taught me what yarn bombing is. I’ve always wanted to learn how to knit. This event sounded like a great opportunity!
I feel the same way! Except, kinda late for me now anyway. haha
Looks cool and interesting! Sucks that I found out about it too late.
