Knit Sighting

For this week's Fiber Arts Friday, I'm going to feature some knit sightings of late. To see lots of other interesting fiber arts, be sure to visit Andrea's blog Wisdom Begins in Wonder.

Saw some very neat yarn bombing in downtown San Jose during the long weekend. These were put up during International yarn bombing day on June 14.


On July 4th we went to Marin County Fair where fiber arts were on display with their winnings. This is only a partial sampling of what was there, we have some truly talented people in the area!
























Last but not least, a knitter's cake!

I now have a better appreciation for the 4H barns now that I knit, spin and weave. Those sweaters were gorgeous.

Hey Vivian! Give your pooch some scratches from me. I love all the pictures from the fair. The 4-H exhibits and animals are always my favorite thing at the county fair. Mmm, makes me think of fried food too. The yarn bombing must be quite fun, I imagine a lot of snickering going on in the dark. Happy FAF! Have a great week.

That's quite a selection. It's hard to believe all of those items are hand-made. :-)
