Just yesterday, I happened on this book on yarn bombing that would make a nice coffee table book. http://www.amazon.com/Yarn-Bombing-Crochet-Knit-Graffiti/dp/1551522551/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1307451071&sr=1-1

I'm not sure if this considered a yarn bombing but at Jo Ann Fabrics site right now there is a crocheted bike on the front page.

From website: "Two of our Iron Men sculptures on Crosby beach have been given some crocheted jumpsuits by a Polish knitwear artist called Olek. Polish-born 34-year-old artist Agata Oleksiak, known as Olek, has previously surprised New Yorkers by giving the Wall Street bull similar treatment. Check it out at:

How cool! These pictures made me laugh because the yarn looks so "natural".
