I love it! Someone had obviously walked past that tree on many occasions and thought, “oh that poor tree looks cold, I might knit it a coat”. Brilliant!
Thanks Natalie… Someone obviously felt this tree needed a bit of warming up so knitted him a coat. I think it looks liked the testcard the BBC used to show when it had finished for the day! :)

I;ve never seen an actual yarn bomb in real life so have to be content with lovely pics like this!
Emma says
My favourite ever yarn bomb has to be one on a statue in Copenhagen. Someone had knitted around 50 tiny scarves for a sculpture in the city centre! :D
Funky Wellies says
Nice shot, we see this a lot too, around trees, street lamps, poles, etc. I think it is such a lovely idea, brightens up the day. xx

Thanks Fiona (: x
Frankie Parker says
Good to see that they love their trees so much they knitted it a scarf to keep warm…. there has to be some crazy story behind it….
bavaria says
Lots of other things get covered too with yarn bombing, lamposts, fences, shop fronts… This is the biggest bit of yarn bombing I have seen though :)

Love it, a nice warm tree ;)

He is very self-sufficient, he can hug himself! :)

fivegoblogging says
hehehe It looks like a scarf wrapped around that tree. Was it chilly?
bavaria says
It was a piece of tree clothing knitted for it especially! It wasn’t cold at the time, but as it snowed yesterday I am sure it was grateful for it! :)
SAHMlovingit says
Love how you dress your trees
bavaria says
Thank you. Can’t say many of our trees would keep that warm though, I cannot knit to save my life!!

The contrast of the colourful ‘tree scarf’ and the white of the building is lovely.

Thank you Natalie… We obviously have the same “eye”! :)
Pret-A-Mummy says
I love it! Someone had obviously walked past that tree on many occasions and thought, “oh that poor tree looks cold, I might knit it a coat”. Brilliant!

I know… “What are you knitting?” “Oh just some clothes for a tree”! Thanks Mari xx
Mary says
Taking tree hugging to new extremes! Love it…

As a tree hugger I approve, it does make it a little more of a softer experience :) Thanks Mary! :)
Insomniac Mummy says
