2nd and 3rd Tag

Tonight I snuck out and decorated the little tree at the front of the apartments. Because its autumn I have put some rusty coloured tags there. Ill check them tomorrow and see if they look any good in daylight and take some piccys. This is fun. Here is a blurb about yarn bombers I found on the net by Keith Lyons (http://keithlyons.wordpress.com/2009/12/30/yarn-bombing-a-christmas-treat/)

# We anonymously promote knitting as adventure.
# We aim to soften the edges of an otherwise cruel harsh environment.
# We juxtapose vandalism with the non-threatening nature of knitting.
# We aim to readdress the nature of graffiti with a nonpermanent, nondestructive cosy medium.
# If you don’t like it just unpick it.
# We are a non-discriminating collective.
# We aim to recruit members to tag on an international scale.
# Actively contributing to a more positive type of global warming.
The manifesto concludes with the questions “Do you have too much responsibility in your life? Do you yearn for something pointless?” The manifesto suggests that if the answer is ‘yes’ then join the movement and become an outlaw knitter.
Some guerilla knitting appeared near my office at the University of Canberra and my response was in harmony with Mandy and Leanne’s introductory chapter:
Yarn bombing can be political, it can be heart-warming, and it can be funny, Most of all, yarn graffiti is unexpected, and it resonates with almost everyone who encounters it.
