Yarn Bombing in Finland


Granny square afghans on the steps outside Helsinki Cathedral in Finland. According to FB comments, there were more afghans than they had room for on the steps. After this event, the afghans were delivered to hospitals, day care centers, convalescent homes, etc. Wow!

    I sent a link to this to my family who have visited Helsinki and also to a few of my Finnish bloggers who live elsewhere. What a lovely display.

    That is awesome -- and I'm sure the afghans will be much appreciated when the snow falls.
