Now in Technicolor

3-21-11
The Berkeley Guerrilla Knitters strike again! This is, I think, some of their better work. Usually they just knit sweaters for sign posts which is great and all, but the pattern of knitting interacting with the pattern of the bike rack creates a sort of movement that is far more visually appealing if you ask me. Plus they used a wider variety of patterns on this than usual.

Nice way to brighten up a dreary day!

Also, I'm finally getting caught up with This American Life again (being sick has its perks and one of those is the ability to listen to This American Life and Radilab undisturbed). This week's theme is Taking Charge of a situation, or saving the day. The Guerrilla Knitters certainly fit into that category as they take charge and attempt to bring color, life, and knitting "graffiti" into unexpected urban spaces.
