Sweater Pole project

Our 'Yarn Addicts' group completed two knitted pole sweaters over last month. They can be seen in downtown Santa Rosa.

Six people worked on them, each knitting or crocheting one or two (or five) sections, and then they were all crocheted together onto the poles.
Aren't they cool?

  1. Very cool. What's the significance? Besides looking fabulous, I mean.

  2. The sweater pole project was loosely organized by our local yarn store, CastAway. It was inspired by other like projects by knitters and crocheters across the globe. I think a common goal among the artists is to do something similar to graffiti art without the damage to public property.:)
