Saturday, June 9th, was International Yarn Bombing Day.
I knitted several bees to add to the Blue Trees near my work for Intl Yarn Bomb Day 2012. The trees are for deforestation awareness so I wanted to add a few bees for bee awareness.
My first one didn't turn out too well. I defied the pattern and did it in the round. I don't think I put the wings on in quite the right place either.
I will follow the pattern for the next one.
I made 5 bees. But I chickened out of adding them to the Blue Trees. I've read quite a bit about some people thinking that yarn bombing is a bit like vandalism.
After watching a couple of squirels stealing strawberries from our patch I decided to put them in the strawberry patch like scarecrows. Hopefully they'll do the trick!!
