Newington Prepares for Winter

I recently learned how to crochet flowers and decided to spread my joy. On such a beautiful day, I went to the Newington Skate Park with my favorite cohort. I also made these awesome Knitty Gritty tags for our work.
I recently stumbled upon a blog post that contains evidence of another yarn bomber(s) in the Hartford area. A yarn store in Bloomfield got bombed. We need to go investigate!

Meeting Wednesday, Real Art Ways, 7pm.

Winter is coming!

You haven't seen much from me lately, but that's because I'm saving up and I've got big plans. Downtown plans. By first snowfall I should have a lot done, and could use some extra help getting everything up! If you'd like to help in the meantime, I have a plethora of yarn.

I'm also in the middle of bombing the inside of my car. Pictures of that to come.

The West Hartford Art League is having a juried fiber exhibit entitled Out of the Loop. Unfortunately I think my ideas involving crocheting and stripper poles are not mature enough to go forward with! Maybe next time.

Last night we met at Tisane where I mistook gay night for trivia night! We had tasty drinks and a huge cookie! It's a great place for yarnwork, but I'd put the needles and hooks away once it gets late. Apparently the lights get dim no matter what you're doing : p

But really. First snowfall. I'm serious.

reading my mind. OooooEeeeOoooo...

I hope everyone got a chance to see our latest bombs. Mostly because the church where we posted them pulled them down! Boooooooo! We see how you are about supporting art!

While we were looking for places to bomb, I had an idea to embroidery-bomb. No reason that can't work as well as yarn. Then I get a message from a craft site that I follow on Facebook.

How did they know what I was thinking? Or how did I know? Creepy...

Enjoy anyway!

See you next week!

Big things

We have big plans to discuss this week. The KGC needs to think BIG. Winter is coming along and there are more than just poles that need warmth...

Every artist has a duty to help beautify their city.

Join us, Vegas BLVD 7pm Wednesday night.

Before I inspire you, I must make you laugh
