Knitting Into Nature

August 15th, 2008

There is so much creativity in the world of knitting and crochet, and sometimes we get to see amazing works of art that use these crafts. Back in May, we shared with you a preview of artist Amy Catarina’s exhibit, “This used to be real estate, now it’s only fields and trees.” Amy used Fun Fur to knit forest animals and patches of “grass,” all set in a room with photographic murals of the forest, that I find just enchanting. As promised in our first post, we have photos from the show:

The exhibit is currently showing at the Grand Central Art Center in Santa Ana, California, and it will be there until August 24th, so if you’re in the area, definitely check it out. For more information, check out Amy’s website, FreeRangeKnitting.com.
