This here is Boston's own purveyor of broken toy uke & roll burlesqueitude, Jojo Lazar, rocking her own wicked green hand-knit strap for what I can only assume is a delicious, delicious tenor ukulele. Photo by David W. Aquilina.
I am being thwarted at every turn! So I got a new phone. One of those nifty Android phones. So far I love it. Then I found out I can blog straight onto here from the phone! Squeeeeee! I go to post a blog from something I found on Facebook. Which generally I can keep up with on the Fancy Phone, but for some reason I can't find the post on the phone version, only on the computer. Sigh... Then I think that I may have posted a blog on this group already, and I should mention that. I can't find the post. Sigh...
So. Hopefully I've got this thing figured out. It's a yarnbombing group out of Japan, called Que d'Accord. The name is a pun on "ke do ko" which means "woolen octopus". So cute! I really should leave the article for you all to read, it's so interesting. And the work is so cool! I wish I could go there and see it in person!
This past Tuesday we met at Real Art Ways for their monthly game night which usually falls on the first Tuesday of every month. Why was this one on the second Tuesday, you ask? All this friggen snow! One of our members has been keeping busing shoveling snow off of roofs. Too bad my landlord didn't hire him to clean off our garage. Oops! Good thing that snow was there or my car would have been smashed.
Lots of flowers! We're getting ready....
Pink Flamingos and pink flowers!
Big plans for the 14th....
That cat is totally barfing.
Is that rope?
Turns out I don't work Sunday or Monday morning. So when do you want to do this?
I pass by the spot en route to purchase new glasses and even after all the storms, the same yarn bombs are there and holding up. We should all be so resilient. Enjoy the before shots in my blog and after shots here!
I'm not feeling too hot so I'm going to keep this short and sweet - like me!
We meet Tuesday, 7pm @ Real Art Ways
A dear old friend of mine showed me this yarn bomb from Oslo, Norway. If this is yours, please claim it!
Local artist Barbara Hocker sent me a link to this guy's work the other day. I can't find much information besides his A/S/L. Thomas C. Chung, born in Australia but resides in Norway, he completed a BFA at the University of New South Wales in the College Of Fine Arts, Paddington, Australia.
Hello! I've been laying low on the blogging. A little too low. I got a bunch of ideas, but then it gets to be too many and I misplace a bunch. Gotta go through metaphorical piles of crap to find everything I wanted to show you guys. But I will. It's all so cool, and I miss you!!!
Until then, I will do what I probably should be doing with these tasty morsels. I came across this video on Twitter yesterday. So cute. Maybe I should teach my cats to tag. Naaahhhh!
