Hello Prague: Huge Crochet Applique Mural

Crochet-yarn-bomb-flowers-to-appliqueOne of the amazing visual treats that we experienced in Prague last year, was in fact a treat within a treat, though that describes just about everything in Prague, what a city! On our visit to Vysrehard, see  my post here, not only were there amazing views and ancient history, but also the biggest yarn bombing installation I’ve ever seen! Ever seen a crocheted mural, constructed on a base of recycled sweaters? Me neither, so I was very excited to capture this and share it with you. I’m not sure how many years something like this can hold up, especially in a place with cold winters, so if you decide to do something similar, I’d hang it in a way that it can be removed come rain and such. All this wonderful crocheted art is both a sign and an eye catcher at a place called Indigo Kids, which is a kindergarten. You can see the main sign in my post about signs in Prague, and here I’ve presented you with all the many ways to make pictures with crochet. enjoy!

Yarn-bomb-crochet-mural-day-careI was just thinking, I wonder how many folks crocheted this? What an amazing group effort.
