Yesterday I had a trip down to the coast in Kent to visit my mum. We had lunch out, and wheeled her down the pier. I thought you might like to see these photos of the railings, which have been yarn bombed. I think it has even been added to since my last visit (when I forgot to take my camera).

I even saw a starfish, which I am pretty sure was knitted from my own pattern. Well done Herne Bay knitters and crocheters, you have done a fantastic job!
Lovely, this is new to me too and my sister lives in Herne Bay.

Highly original ideas! I've never really understood "yarn bombing" but this brings me the closest I've been to seeing the value in it. They're fun to look at!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! It's such a delight to come across a yarn bombing. This one is spectacular.

How fun. I love Yarn Bombing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous way to brighten up the railings. Thanks for sharing, and here's MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT POST

That's fabulous. I love the variety. A great way to bring a smile to people's faces. Thanks for sharing the pictures.
ReplyDeleteOh this is fabulous. When I was in Bath recently the lamp posts had been bombed, looked great, but it had nothing on this, love it :D
ReplyDeleteThat looks amazing and so much fun! x
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely, there is a group that yarn bombs down here regularly, and I love seeing their creations
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous, and is such a brilliant way of bringing people together to work on a community project. I did a post, then dashed off to London to see my younger daughter before Melinda posted her link, so I'm late linking in to it but my post is at https://thebooktrunkblog.wordpress.com/
ReplyDelete*AWESOME*!!

Doesn't that just brighten up the bridge! How lovely. I do wonder how long all that would take and how many were doing it!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know, though it definitely seemed that each section of the fence had been done by a different person.
DeleteSo pretty and colourful
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, I love the beach huts!!
ReplyDeleteOh thats gorgeous! what a lovely way to brighten up the railings!
ReplyDeleteBetter than most yarn bombing I have seen. Why don't you knit a wedding cake?
