Gotta love when #FreeDC #yarnbombing spree goes to an *arts center*. Stitcher put these up this week in Brookland + Edgewood. @freedcproject.bsky.social #yarnbombs #craftivism
A symphony of shadow + color: A sapling casts wintry shadows on sidewalk snow banked against brightly muraled walls (tile? paint? not sure). Running down a foot or two of the tree's trunk is a bright red/white "FREE DC" knitted banner. Another red/white vertical knitted "FREE DC" yarnbomb is affixed to the back of a stop sign on a street corner in front of what looks like an art deco theater building (housing a photo store). Cheerily splayed on sidewalk fencing overlooking the entrance to Edgewood Arts center (signage visible in background) is a larger FREE DC knitted banner, several few inches wide, offering cheer to passersby in the snow.

🙌🏽Whoot! Just topped 100 followers. Yay for @allofthebells.bsky.social, our 101st.

Who else is in? Have a FriendSky that♥️ crafting + longs for a #FreeDC, both for itself + as a step toward fascist-free USA? RE- or QUOTE-POST this with a nudge to follow. Thanks!

[NB-Followers see re/quotes, NOT ❤️s!]
Follow YarnDC because we always aim for Alt Text! Here is a screenshot of our banner image, avatar, count of 101 followers, 51 following + 224 posts, and an account description reading "#FreeDC - domestic arts <--> public message - guerilla knitters - craftivism - Flickr.com/photos/yarndc - RAV: ravelry.com/patterns/library/free-dc-yarnbomb" The banner image is a crocheted banner (horiz.) with roughly embroidered yarn letters saying, "MAGA bites." [We love that it includes punctuation.] The circle avatar is a FREE DC red-white yarnbomb tied to a signpost in the middle of a street median.

G'morning, Parkview. If you're lucky, you'll be seeing this around. Our stitcher said: "Tension on the fasteners is a bit off because it was 12 degrees as I was trying to attach -- had to work fast! It’s a nice complement to all the Free DC wheat pasting in then neighborhood, though!"

We agree.♥️
Big bold beautiful "FREE DC" knitted banner (vertical) on a fat, fluted lamppost. Stitcher's novel design is white letters F-R-E-E on navy background and, below that, D+C in inverse (blue on white). The yarnbomb is several inches wide and, for reasons explained in the skeet (it's been chilly here), it has a kind of curvaceous look as it's pulled tight this way and that to stay on the pole. Behind it, a boxy electrical transformer box is emblazoned with a foursome of striking red/white FreeDC posters in the same color-inversion style.

Laced up with frigid fingers Saturday. Anyone near 14th Street in Columbia Heights know if it's still up?

> Funny: Passersby hardly notice you #yarnbombing in broad daylight -- unless stopping to thank you. ♥️

> #yarnbomb variation on colorwork here -- "embroidered" rope

#Yarnbombing

Columbia Heights

Hard to find appropriate surfaces for these larger ones, but the beauty of this spot is that it faces 🎯 -- and Target works with ICE.

Snowy sidewalk. Gray plastic signpost of the type they put outside restaurants and shop doors, but with no message on it save our "FREE DC" knit banner. Across the city street is a low-rise urban shopping center housing a Target. Close-up of the same "FREE DC" knit yarnbomb, red letters on beige. Behind it can be seen dirty snow drifts, passing car, and an Old Navy storefront across 14th Street NW.

ICE (is) OUT (there) (on the Potomac River) - the kind of ice we're here for.

#FreeDC #yarnbomb #yarnbombing
A glimpse of snow on the ground. At eye-level, at foreground left, a red-on-white crocheted vertical "FREE DC" banner, maybe 20 inches tall, is strung on a concrete post. Crossing behind is white-painted iron seawall fence between the promenade and the fully iced-over Potomac River, reflecting gray, blue and peach-pink tints from a late-afternoon sky.

Don't disagree, but I do also think its being a second brazen killing -- proving even to skeptics that Renee Good was not a one-off -- intensified the outrage about Pretti.
lying on a table (waiting to be attached to a signpost outside), my knitted yellow "yarnbomb" memorial banner is decorated with a blue flower and tassels and orange letters spelling Renee Good's name

WIP for #AlexPretti

Thinking passersby should see ALEX and #ReneeGood along the route from L'Enfant Plaza Metro to ICE HQ. Yes?
knitting in progress on wooden table top, held flat by hand and coffee mug, from which the name "ALEX" is emerging, in black and red on white with black border knitting pattern for "ALEX" in jagged black on white letters (black border) with a stark red cross, nodding to his medical service, at top, and a red streak on the "X" denoting his murder Completed knit yarnbomb ready to go outdoors as soon as we can bear taking our gloves off for the few minutes needed to hang it. Long and narrow, lying somewhat curled on wooden table top, it says "RENEE GOOD" in neon-orange letters accented in blue against a yellow background. Ornamented at top with a blue flower and at bottom with soft blue fringing.

Snowy, you say? What - it's cold?

Yarnbombers gonna yarnbomb for @freedcproject.bsky.social, whatever the weather. #FreeDC
The site of our city's newest yarnbomb is Southwest DC's famous(?) Titanic Memorial - actually a U.S. National Park, though that's not widely known - on the Potomac Channel near Fort McNair and across the water from a public golf course Donald Trump plans to ruin. Tied to a light post at the end of the Titanic Memorial Park promenade, the slate-gray river behind it under a gray sky, a red-on-white crocheted banner maybe 15" tall, "FREE DC."

Free yarnbomb pattern - "ALEX" - designed this morning. Also patterns + an IRL yarnbomb for Renee Good.

Let's not let this become a trend. ICE OUT. Defund DHS.

Get stitching, team.

Yarnbomb fever that "infected" Ward 6 is now spreading across @freedcproject.bsky.social! This beauty -- a Tunisian-crochet that changed hands at our first Stitch+Bitch meet-up, Sunday -- is now up in Ward 1, inspiring people to #FreeDC!
Strung to a signpost by a park and community garden, a "Free DC" red-on-black vertical banner handmade in a solid knit fabric of worsted yarn using Tunisian crochet. Strung to a signpost by a park and bike rack, large buildings (a hospital, possibly) in the distance, a "Free DC" red-on-black vertical banner handmade in a solid knit fabric of worsted yarn using Tunisian crochet.

@freedcproject.bsky.social's #yarnbomb crew's growing! We met in person at last for Stitch+Bitch, sharing SOLIDARITY and work like this Tunisian crochet masterpiece made w *knit* colorwork pattern, looking GOOD in a Capitol Hill park. (Maker likes TL Yarncrafts for Tu-Cro tips.)
~alt text 4 more~
Close-up of a "Free DC" banner almost as large as a baby blanket and just as luscious-looking, with the red-on-white stars + 2 stripes of the District flag. The Tunisian crochet needlework resembles a cross between garter-stitch knit and crochet, with super-neat edges on lettering and images. That Free DC flag patterned "baby blanket" placed out in the wild in DC's Capitol Hill n'hood. It shines out as a bright beacon of hope + solidarity on a decorative cast iron fence surrounding a city park in winter browns. WE LOVE IT SO MUCH
