On my way home from Bouchercon 2017 in Toronto I had a long layover in the Philadelphia International Airport. I came across this delightful exhibit of yarnbombing. It’s retro and modern and charming, all at the same time. The artist calls herself Marbufs.
Such joy!

It’s like a Partridge Family memorial.

Come on, get happy!
What a fun and colorful display. Dang, my simple, back-n-forth crochet suddenly seems so pitiful!
It’s not pitiful at all! Her work is fun and fascinating, but if I were surrounded by yarnbombs every day, I fear my head would explode.
Thank you Laura
