Stumbling

I love stumbling.  Love it.  Some days are better than others and today was great.  I love to stumble design websites.  I have a facination with home design concepts.  I don't have much design sense so I like to ogle. 

While ogling today I found an artist called Rachel Denny.  She works with fibre and makes domestic trophies.  Have a look.

    Hi WM

    I stumbled onto your blog via the Yarn Harlot.

    After reading your post from yesterday and seeing your poll on knitting graffiti, I thought you would be interested in seeing the work of Olek, an artist in NYC. Her website is http://agataolek.com/home.html.

    The video of Olek covering the Wall Street Bull with her crocheted fabric is amazing.

    Nancy,

    Thanks for the link. You're right, the video of the bull is astounding. I love the idea of knit graffiti. It even exists in Japan. There's a group called Surprise Attack Knitting Group. They're really fun. They do benches as well as hang knit octopi in public places. Here's a link to an article about them and their blog. The blog is in Japanese but the pictures speak for themselves,
