Yes, I got sprung installing this one in the gym at work by 4 people. They couldn't work out why I would be doing it. I told them the gym was too blokey and it needed some feminine vibe to balance it out a bit.

Love you, blood nut. AND....I got sprung while attaching this at 7:30am by security. Two blokes came over and asked what are you doing? I said Im installing a peice of art . They both laughed and I offered to take it down but the said its "harmless" it can stay there. I said I do it to make people smile. Snuck back at lunch time for a snap of it and to check it was still there.

Here is a blurb about yarn bombers I found on the net by Keith Lyons (http://keithlyons.wordpress.com/2009/12/30/yarn-bombing-a-christmas-treat/)
# We anonymously promote knitting as adventure. # We aim to soften the edges of an otherwise cruel harsh environment. # We juxtapose vandalism with the non-threatening nature of knitting. # We aim to readdress the nature of graffiti with a nonpermanent, nondestructive cosy medium. # If you don’t like it just unpick it. # We are a non-discriminating collective. # We aim to recruit members to tag on an international scale. # Actively contributing to a more positive type of global warming. The manifesto concludes with the questions “Do you have too much responsibility in your life? Do you yearn for something pointless?” The manifesto suggests that if the answer is ‘yes’ then join the movement and become an outlaw knitter. Some guerilla knitting appeared near my office at the University of Canberra and my response was in harmony with Mandy and Leanne’s introductory chapter: Yarn bombing can be political, it can be heart-warming, and it can be funny, Most of all, yarn graffiti is unexpected, and it resonates with almost everyone who encounters it.
