I bet you are thinking something "environmental" with that title - well, in a way, you are right! In Columbus, Indiana, they have decided to wrap trees in yarn. It was part of an art project and turned into so much more. Go to the link below the next picture to read the article:
Just in case you can't go to the link - what this was about was a group of women that have been knitting together for a few years, decided to enter a community art project contest and decided to cover the downtown tree trunks with knitting. From there, the creative juices started flowing. One tree actually had hats and was named: "Need a Hat, Take a Hat; Have a Hat, Leave a Hat". It actually had hats attached with safety pins for the purpose of sharing with the needy. The winner of the contest, Bloomin' Fun, won $1,000. The winnings were donated to the Love Chapel. Next year, they plan to expand the project. I've also included a link that is a slideshow of the trees. Please take the time to look at it and if you have any trouble with it - let me know. It's well worth looking at!!!!!! Enjoy!!!!!!
