Fifteenth of November: Day 15 of 21 days of Yarn bombing

Ok, this is a bit of a cheat, but it comes with an entertaining story.

Remember the bench wrap that I did on day 9?
Well it didn't last the day, let alone a couple hours, but a couple of days later, when my roommate and I were off  to post the fishing pole bomb we walked past a tree in front of a house across the street from the bus stop and lo and behold, there in the tree was my tag!
It was perfectly fine, just... not where I bombed it. It was just laying over a branch.
So i picked it up and recycled it.

With this re-bomb!

I put it up at my school. So while this isn't super original, I like it anyway.
I am gonna keep plugging away at this 21 days!

Fourteenth of November: Day 14 of 21 days of Yarn bombing

Pretty much since day 1 of these 21 days of yarn bombing, I wanted to do something pretty big.
Or at least something interesting.
So while I was working on all these other tags, I was working on a major one in the background.

Fishing!

And it looks like I caught me a big one!
I installed my fishing pole tag on this particular pole and got the idea for this particular tag, because the pole is crooked. It reminded me of the angle that you would hold a fishing pole at.

I am very proud of this one. I molded the rings from wire, then wrapped them in yarn.
And the fishing line is wound around the reel there, and can tighten and loosen, lowering and reeling in the fish.

I had so much fun with this one! I hope everyone in my neighbourhood likes it too.

Thirteenth of November: Day 13 of 21 days of Yarn bombing

Hey everybody.
I did better today!
I went back to day 10's pole tag in the playground. I was very happy to still find it there.

And so I added more to it.

One day I would love to be able to keep coming back to a tag and add to it (like yarnattacks 21 days project), but for now I will settle for adding another pole tag above day 10s.

The flowers were also still on the fence.

I hope all the kids like them tomorrow when they go to school.

Twelfth of November: Day twelve of 21 days of Yarn bombing

In advance, before you see the photos of todays yarn bomb, I would like to apoligize.
I got super busy with work and travel and all kinds of things.
I didn't have the chance to do a real yarn bomb.

So I did this.
Sad, sad, bus stop bench tag.

Also, it is getting very cold outside.
I promise day 13 will be better.

Eleventh of November: day 11 of 21 days of yarn bombing

Happy 11/11/11!
And happy Rememberence/veterans/ just plain long weekend to everyone!

In celebration of not only 21 days of yarn bombing, but also Rememberence day, I went down to the legislative grounds for today's bomb.
At the edge of the legislature, there is a statue honoring those who have fallen in combat, but remain unidentified. The unknown solider.
Since it is 11/11/11, and not just any Nov. 11th, I made these 11 poppies, and placed them on the statue of the unknown solider.

They looked really beautiful amongst the wreaths.

I dedicate these poppies in memory of all the fallen soldiers.
I hope you all enjoy them.

Tenth of November: Day ten of 21 days of Yarn bombing

Hey! You're never going to believe this!
Not only are all of day 5 (except that one we already knew was missing) and day 6's flowers still at the school...

But someone added their own little poppy to the mix!
I'm really glad they a) liked the flowers and b) enough to add their own art to it.

Kids are great.
Anyway, on to day 10!
Ok, originally, I had big plans for today. Then city workers came along and fixed the pole I intended on tagging, so now I am with out a pole. -sigh-
I will keep my eye open, but likely I will end up bombing it outside these 21 days of awesome.

In the mean time, here is day 10's beautiful tag.

I went back to the playground that hosts the wonderful little flowers and did this pole cover on part of the structure.

I really hope the kids like this too.

See you back for day 11!

Ninth of November: Day nine of 21 days of Yarn bombing

I got an early start on this one.
Which means I should have posted this sooner, but after poutine and watching D.E.B.s with my some new friends, I am getting around to it now.

This is at the bus stop by my house.

I didn't get many shots of it because people started showing up at the bus stop and I looked a little weird to have my cell camera out taking pictures of a yarn bombing.
And then the bus came soon after. I will have to see if it is still there tomorrow.
Until then, here is a cat with my Doorknoctopus on its head.
