Combining Dance and Crochet – No Kidding!

September 16th, 2009 by Ilana

I was in mid-town New York City last weekend and saw a striking crochet art exhibit in the window of the Roger Smith Hotel.  There will be a performance on several upcoming evenings that integrate dance in this crochet setting.  If you are in New York City it looks like something you won’t want to miss. The performances are 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. September 18, 21, 23 and 25.

Knitta Please Hits Fashion Week

September 16th, 2009 by Jess

New York Fashion Week is the place to see and be seen. Underground yarn-bombing group Knitta Please got into the spirit by adding colorful knitted covers to poles outside of the Standard Hotel. The project, which will be on display through tomorrow, is meant to celebrate the relationship between fashion, design, crafting, and street culture.
