Mixing up the knitting needles and the street art, yarnbombing involves using knitting and needlework to create art that envelopes street objects in a form of non-destructive, tactile graffiti. Claire Sambook (one of the queen bees of activity and creativity in Southsea) has been out and about with her own knitting needle spray cans, keep your eyes peeled for more in the coming months. And if your needles are getting the itch, get involved and be sure to send some photos our way.

Below are a couple photos, to see loads more check out Claire’s Flickr.
