Outdoor Love
One of the blogs I’ve been following for ages is the super groovy Outdoor Knit blog fresh out of Wellington, Aotearoa. So when I knew I was heading that way for a talk I flicked Knitsch an email saying ‘come along!’
It was awesome to make contact and I’m still flicking through the wonderful wee zine I got from her about knitting outdoors. I’m not sure if you can buy it online anywhere, Knitsch?
In our initial chats we were hoping to get out and do some radical craft together. But as it turned out I didn’t have the time or the energy to commit to something that fun 
BUT the Outdoor Knit crew went out regardless and created some nice positive joy for the Bypass Communters of Wellington.
I just adore the idea of spreading some positive messages via fence stitching. In this time of global financial stress it really is all too easy to get depressed and despondent about it all. And some would suggest that the powers that be are all too happy for us to do so..
I hope the people of Wellington do perk up a bit when they see this. And maybe they’ll even be inspired to get out and do something positive in their own community.
As for me, I’m super fired up to do some more work around Melbourne. Anyone keen to join me on a big project, get in touch!
And then! I was strolling down Cuba Street Mall with the whanau and stumbled across the massive knit love tree cozy the Outdoor Knit crew built during the Cuba Street Carnival. And it looks awesome!
