(type yarn bombing into google) I have seen some around here and around Bristol, there is even some on the end of Clevedon pier! Although I love it I couldn&#8217;t imagine knitting something big enough or going out in the night to Yarn Bomb something!<br \/>\nWhile I was looking around our local flower festival I saw a twig from a tree yarn bombed as an entry. It was fabulous and got third prize. I thought &#8220;I could do that!&#8221; as you do. I looked for something suitable while out on a walk with our visitors, who thought I had totally lost it! My family are used to me and didn&#8217;t bat an eyelid!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-1.jpg\" alt=\"Yarn bomb 1\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1339\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-1-229x300.jpg 229w, https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-1-783x1024.jpg 783w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I crochet some more chains and yarn bombed this twig!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-2.jpg\" alt=\"Yarn bomb 2\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1371\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-2-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/miriamrogers.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/Yarn-bomb-2-764x1024.jpg 764w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed the process so much, it was very relaxing to knit or chain while watching a film on the iPlayer and my yarn bombed twigs make me smile each time I walk by them and of course I had happy thoughts of my blog friend whilst doing it.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for playing Helena<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During August Helena and I decided to make something, anything, using only crochet chain stitch.
