If you are taking the trash out some night and you hear a strange noise or sense that you’re not alone, don’t panic and call the police. At least don’t call the police until you determine whether or not you’re simply the victim of a YARN BOMBER. Knitting and its sister process, crocheting, have hit the streets. In the beginning of this new cultural phenomenon, Yarn Bombers executed their shenanigans under the cloak of darkness. They did their yagging (tagging with yarn) and then photographed their unsuspecting prey. These pics eventually made their way onto the internet. This became a way to brag anonymously, like graffiti artists who post pictures of their paint creations.
- Nothing is safe.
Yarn bombers strike again. As the bomber's confidence grows, the size of the their targets also become bigger..
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could supply our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan with yarn instead of bombs and guns?
Tanks could be all decked out in a pink blanket rather than shooting live rounds.
And soldiers guns and swords could wear brightly colored mittens instead of shooting cold steel bullets.
Make Socks Not War.
