Concept Into Reality

While at the show this weekend we stayed with friends overnight in Cambridge.  While there we realized that the artist in residence had taken on this huge adventure/journey and the ceremony was the same day as the show.  Before going to the show we went over to check it out and it was breathtaking.  She decided one day as a fellow knitter that wouldn't it be cool to cover the downtown bridge in knitwear.  We happen to see her there getting ready and she said that she never thought that it would come together so amazing.  The support and knitwear kept pouring in it seemed.  The pictures do not convey what it was like to be there, to see the crazy/silly/groundbreaking idea in action.  After the event the knitwear is being donated to Homeless and Animal shelters.  As the last picture shows, some had already helped themselves during last weeks cooler weather.
