Yarn Bombing — Hot+Tea : Part 02
We previously posted on Hookedblog here about some yarn bombing street work that appeared on the streets of East London two weeks ago. The work was that of American artist Hot + Tea who was in town on route to Berlin. Last week saw the artist return to London and instal some additional yarn street pieces. We caught up with the artist just off Brick Lane as he was installed two new pieces.
This piece on Sclater Street managed to stay up for a week.
You can read more about Yarn Bombing on this blog dedicated to the subject. There is also a book Yarn Bombing — The Art of Crochet and Knit Graffiti
available from Amazon.
