According to Wikipedia, "Yarn bombing, yarnbombing, yarnstorming, guerrilla knitting, urban knitting or graffiti knitting is a type of graffiti or street art that employs colorful displays of knitted or crocheted yarn or fibre rather than paint or chalk."
We just think it's a delightful form of warm, fuzzy graffiti
Here are some examples of what we've done around here in the past -
