- RadiatedAnt, on 01/22/2009, -0/+44Knitta please...
- mbelrose, on 01/21/2009, -0/+34When knitting needles are outlawed, only outlaws will have knitting needles.
- awtripp, on 01/22/2009, -0/+21Knitta stole my bike!
....and made it a sweater? - Zippo, on 01/21/2009, -1/+12Better hope there's no kittens nearby.
- harristotle, on 01/22/2009, -1/+12"Quick before the cops get here!"
Click click click click click
"Damnit James, stop working on your mom's sweater!" - mjwildcat, on 01/22/2009, -0/+9Stitch n' Bitch ftw
- inigomntoya, on 01/22/2009, -1/+10Vandalism is not funny. It is sad that old people like this are forced out of the nursing homes and onto the streets with only a ball of yarn and knitting needles.
- GVR90, on 01/22/2009, -2/+10Wow, it's not from the Onion.
- Narcism, on 01/22/2009, -4/+12And instead of working 9-5, I could be at a soup kitchen! Instead of buying a couch, I could be buying material and sewing blankets! Instead of driving to work, I could be walking 15km (9 miles?).

- kodekitten, on 01/22/2009, -0/+7As a knitter struggling to survive a New England winter..... I kinda feel like this is a waste of warm yarn :>
- protogenxl, on 01/22/2009, -0/+6Young Man: Oh well we sometimes feel we're to blame in some way for what our gran's become. I mean she used to be happy here until she, she started on the crochet.
Reporter: (off-screen) Crochet?
Young Man: Yeah. Now she can't do without it. Twenty balls of wool a day, sometimes. If she can't get the wool she gets violent. What can we do about it? - Groucho88, on 01/22/2009, -0/+6Old people will take over the world one day...
- miggie, on 01/23/2009, -0/+5As a knitter I approve this fad!
- no2gates, on 01/22/2009, -1/+6That is so cool. Plus it's warm and toasty..
- inactive, on 01/22/2009, -1/+5I wonder if these artists listen to hippy hop.
- zip000, on 01/22/2009, -0/+4I knit entirely too slowly to use it for graffiti.
It took me like a month to make a scarf...and it is only a so-so scarf at that. - roxbot, on 01/22/2009, -0/+4Cats.
- jaggedsphere, on 01/23/2009, -0/+3knitwits...
- sexybobo, on 01/22/2009, -1/+4And since it only takes a pair of scissors to remove doesn't damage anyone's property.
- boozedrinker, on 01/22/2009, -1/+4I don't know it seems to me that it's a ***** ton of time to invest just to go throw it on something - knitting takes forever. What a waste of time! I mean, you could be masturbating or something with that time!
- tgjerusalem, on 01/22/2009, -0/+3It was derelict before they got to it.
- TalkGibberish, on 01/22/2009, -5/+8I swear that says "YAMbombing"
- inactive, on 01/22/2009, -0/+3Gangsters knitting out their territories, this is the hard knock life.
- mattearle, on 01/22/2009, -1/+4That first pattern towards the front of the bus is totally from here: http://www.knittingillustrated.com/beautiful-patte ...
Hilarious (embarrassing) that I know that. - jgray1975, on 01/22/2009, -1/+4What a waste to time. Should do something more valuable with their time like play video games or surf Digg.
- torchstar, on 01/23/2009, -0/+3What happens when it rains? The bus may not fit in its sweater anymore...
- DulcetTone, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2Finally, someone trying to keep society from unraveling
- G001, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2Ravelry.com's tagline, though you have to sign in to see it:
"Where my stitches at?" - lucienve, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2Hrm - Why are the signs on the bus (and on the tires, and windows...) in what appears to be Chinese, when the article says the woman is from Texas?
- inigomntoya, on 01/22/2009, -0/+2Eh - they'll die off...
- digmystuff, on 01/21/2009, -12/+14REPOST.
Here is the better mirror, more images + video:
http://deputy-dog.com/2008/11/urban-knitting-world ... - mogdor, on 01/22/2009, -1/+3Yes, that's the name of the website.
- newman8r, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2yeah, covering up stop signs is always a good idea
- ,,|,_, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2Knitta Please is a group that started in Houston. They now have members all over the world. Folks from Houston have also knitted a stone in the Great Wall of China and other silly things while on vacation.
http://www.knittaplease.com/ - leahface, on 01/27/2009, -0/+2There was something similar to this on digg a couple of months ago. It's so fun.

- banmeagaindigg, on 01/22/2009, -1/+3kerning fail
- KingGorilla, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1going at about 40 mph. May have turn signal on despite no sign of making a lane change
- threon, on 01/22/2009, -1/+3gayfitti
- ncapone, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2Grandma?
- bacon_skoda, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2i like You just got Yarned better.
- bacon_skoda, on 01/23/2009, -0/+2"yea i think i'll go spent 140 hours to knit something that will be destroyed woohoo!"
Yet there's tons of people on WoW - QreepyBORIS, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1Definitely thought that it said "Kittens" instead of "Knitters". And "yambombing" instead of "yarnbombing".
Needless to say, I was confused. - pathy, on 01/23/2009, -1/+2That would morph it from a hobby to a responsibility.
- squeevey, on 01/22/2009, -3/+4I think what siszam is getting at, is that the time you are wasting knitting something for a bus, you knit something that is going to be MORE purposeful.
Sure we could all do things actively to help people, but this just is somewhat baffling. I look at that bus and I see a bunch of blankets. - anotherjack, on 03/06/2009, -0/+1@TheBadWolf Instead of writing on Digg you could be writing to your Congressman to stop the ***** in the Sudan...I mean, I could say that writing on Digg is spitting in the face of those dispossessed, who, if they had access to the internet, would draw attention to injustice, rather than posting pedobear ascii and commenting on Lolcats and linking to top 10 lists Cracked. But if Digg was only pictures of starving babies and homelessness and war, you wouldn't come to Digg at all. It seems that everyone wants entertainment nowadays, and resents the enjoyment of others...
- sammydeath, on 01/23/2009, -1/+2not graffiti atall, just some weirdos tryna make a quick buck off the "street art" trend, and looks like its working being such a paper as the telegraph
Knitting? come on....hows that cool -
