No time to actually sit down and write a proper blog post, but while I was looking for something completely different (the web really is weird like that), I stumbled across these photos—and had to share them with you.
The Andy Warhol Bridge in Pittsburgh was completely yarnbombed—yes, yarnbombed—into what is supposedly the largest piece of knitted graffiti in the US. We’re talking 1,847 artists, more than 600 blankets, all coming together in one massive, colorful, yarnbombed installation.
A true “jaw-dropping endeavor,” as the Huffington Post put it—and honestly, I couldn’t agree more. I mean, just imagine the planning, the stitching, the coordination behind something that big… and that beautifully yarnbombed.
Knit the Bridge even has its own blog and a Facebook page both filled with tons of photos, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and all kinds of information about the project and the people involved. Definitely worth a look—enjoy!
There’s even going to be a party on the bridge this Sunday. If only Berlin were a little closer to Pittsburgh… 🙂
