Righty-ho, we have a facebook event!

RSVP right here

and because we love all things carnivale, here's some Tutts to brighten your day.

Lost.

Yes, but is it art? is now missing in action.

As is Graffiti is art.

My hope is that they disappeared because someone absolutely hated them, or completely loved them.

Should one have picked up a copy of the Dom Post today, out would have fallen a map and set list for the Cuba Street Carnival. And we're on it! Woo! Can't really tell in the scan above, but no matter. Woo all the same!

I'm rather looking forward to seeing the Tutts, The Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra, the Batucada Clash, oh and so many more! and of course the night parade...

Something to look forward to next week!

And go visit Yarnbombing - i'm there!

The big announcement is:

actually, there are two. 

One. I am outing myself. in the name sense, not like the closet kind. My name is Tash. 

All this is due to a wee interview i did a while back for Radio New Zealand. You'll be able to find it for the next few days here. We're down the bottom, under home economics make a comeback or something like that.

Oh yeah, and then somehow i ended up in a radio studio recording an ad for...

Two. We are going to be at Cuba Street Carnival! Woo!

This is your super special invitation to join stiX and myself in a public knitting session so we can cosy up the trees in Cuba Mall. 

We will be outside the Bristol from 11am - 4pm on Saturday 21 February (that's the day of all the Carnival fun stuff), knitting* our little hearts out. 

If you or anyone you know wants to come along, but don't have the skills, or the yarn or needles, for a koha we'll give you all three to take with you! 

Plus we will love you forever if you tell your friends, family, colleagues, supermarket check out chick, and dog. We hope to cover all the trees in the copse where we'll be sitting - and we can't possibly hope to do it all ourselves! And of course there is the chance that maybe you'll be snapped knitting with us and be eternally famous.

If you want more info, please send us an email at outdoorknit (at) gmail (dot) com. 

*Or lamely attempting to crochet. We welcome anyone to come and show us how it's done!

Sorry, no knitting today...but I have found a coolio blog by a couple of peeps who aren't sticking to the knitting either - 

Deeply Superficial People

AND a big announcement coming this way on Wednesday - drop by!

Keeping on keeping on

Woah... Knitsch has been hard at work while I have been slacking off as far as knit graffiti goes. So I whipped this one up to practice stitches, work out placement of yarn overs in lace and generally brighten up the Wellington streets.

And weeeeeeee did it brighten! Hideously so... some might say.

This tree cosy outside Offbeat Originals generated a bit of attention seeing as everyone was sitting around sipping their lattes (actually... that may have been me) and enjoying the sunshine. I chose this place because of its proximity to the notorious graffiti alley of Left Bank. Sort of showing that we can afford to be a bit more open and transportable and obvious than the more traditional street artists I guess.
