It's time!

The guerilla gauntlet has been thrown down.
Create a piece of guerilla knit/crochet/weave/altered op shop find and attach somewhere in the public arena.
Take a photo of it as evidence of guerilla action
Here are some ideas:
Use recycled "yarn" like these cut up plastic bags .

Just leave your knit up in a public place. ( I use the word "knit" loosely.)
Crochet, plait, sew.
Tag it with your blog details or leave it as a mystery find.
Up to you.
Perhaps you want to get some friends andy go completely berserk like this:
Every brave guerilla will be listed in my sidebar, and when you have your guerilla knit up in place, send me the blog link and I will post it.
Febuary 23rd is the deadline.
If you have it done before then, let's see it so we can all be inspired,
and
extra banana to you.

THIS
IS
SO
REAL
DEAL!
I want to do it. I don't knit, sew, crochet, or plait. I will do something else.
I don't know what altered op is. But something will be altered, that's for sher.
I have been dying to be on your sidebar for ages!
I'm deffinately up for this as I have had some practice knitting plastic bags for 'thisdisorderedlife' and sadly although posted on 29th Dec it has still not arrived (and it's only 20 miles away!!) I am keeping my fingers crossed - meantime I'll start again for your challenge grrl+dog
woo hoo!
The pommies get to be guerillas first..
A battered banana for you two.
Maybe someone hijacked your knit up and stuck it somewhere?
WOOO HOOOO! I am so in. My daughter and I have already started the knitting -- and we'll try to get some up next weekend! We'll hit toronto with a textile frenzy! :)
This is good - I'm in - I sometimes need a deadline to get stuff done.
I just love the photo of the trees getting wrapped up.
I can 'boy knit' does that count?
I love love love your guerilla knitting and ArtSparker's guerilla wands... it's so fun. ONE PROBLEM ...I don't know how to knit. What do I do?
i'm doing it this weekend!
what are pommies?
I'm on it grrl!
I'm game! I've been working this run-down industrial district this week, and it could definitely use some prettification.
(even though it's kinda pretty in it's own dilapidated way already)
I don't knit either! :( I wish I wouldn't have told my mom at 12 yrs old... "NO, Mom! Knitting is so corny!"
I have another idea in mind... I'm workin' on it, chick!
Fear not brave guerillas..
those who cant knit,
you guys are chimps, and will learn the ways of the urban fabric guerilla in no time.
Stand by for more ideas for the knitting challenged.
I'm in....yarn Guerilla Virgin...
wait and see! the dutchies go loose...
Knit up arrived at destination!! Oh the power of positive thinkin!! Will post a picture of it soooonn! Meantime knit up for Grrl+dog and ? where to put it
double dog dare me! lol
... can she do it? stay tuned. she just might surprise herself.
Okay. I am not a knitter or a sewer or a weaver or a crocheter but I want to be a guerilla too. Count me in! I will figure something out.
go grrl!! i don't knit or crochet, but surely i can come up with SOMETHING. xxoo
oh...I'll be back!
Terisa
Of course I'm in, very much looking forward to seeing what people do.
I would love to participate in this fun project but have't had the great opportunity to weave or knit. I will be as creative as I can and although I may not end up a guerilla, perhaps a monkey will come out. I think that's still in the guerilla family! So, please count me in! Jill
yeh yeh yehhhhhh! i know i shouldnt but count me in for the global knit thing.
Interesting and fun project. I like this alot.
I can't knit so I'm going to have a to get creative if I'm going to pull this off. Perhaps I can enlist the help from some one or adapt something...up adaptation is where it will at.
I'll definitely see what I can work up. Now to think of a good spot.
Dang...don't know what happened to that last post. I guess because I'm quickly surfing at work and trying not to get caught. I sound like a total idiot! ROFL.
Soberly now - I'll find something to adapt!
More to come.

Rock on everyone.
I wanna be a guerilla too..love such challenges and wonder what a small town community will think of this??

Sign me up! I've been wanting to do this for ages. This is just the kick in the butt I need.
This is great...just in time for something beautiful for February! My mind is already whirling with possibilities and I've got a LOT of plastic bags and baler twine..one or the other I'll use, perhaps both.

Great idea!

I'm definately in on this! Our little town down here could do with something cool to look at. My ideas are running wild-the pole outside the police station, the seat at the coffee shop better get knitting and enlist some others too.
Junction, Toronto represent. We are sooooo doing this.
