You can’t let the Streets beat you! Guerrilla Granny crafts reviving...




In 2005 clothes shop owner Magda Sayeg AKA PolyCotN started decorating Houston's grey environment with leftover pieces of yarn.


Her aim, to create a warm and human local living area, appeared to be a success as her Knitta granny graffiti project soon developed into a new urban art form in the United States. A wrapped doorknob lead to this relatively new world-wide street art phenomenon.


Instead of employing paint guerrilla knitters embellish urban settings by  wrapping busses, cars, trees, mail boxes, lamp posts and other somewhat cold public objects in jolly, colourful, woolly non-permanent, easily to be removed knitted or crocheted cloth.


Nowadays yarn storming crews such as Knit The City tackle places as Covent Garden and the Chinese wall. The first International Yarn Bombing day was held on June 11th 2011.
