YARN BOMB!

Mary, owner of the local art boutique/ecclectic gift shop/homemade stuff emporium known as happy delusions has a bike in her window display (my crappy cell phone pic below).



Though it was once one, it's no longer a typical run-of-the-mill Raleigh 10-speed bicycle. Now it has been "yarn bombed" by her knitting crew (a.k.a. "Stitch-n-Bitch" crew). By the time they are done, the goal is to have every speck of this bike covered with yarn.

Sure beats a toaster or tea kettle cozy, doesn't it?

Mary has a 3-speed of her own (believe it or not, she never rode a bicycle until she was an adult!?) that she's stored up above the wares in her shop.



I think it is a Raleigh as well.

What other kinds of art bikes have you seen..?
