Guerilla Crochet

Guerilla knitting hit Sydney a few years ago, and it still brings a smile to my face. The other day, I discovered some delightfully quirky guerilla crochet close to home, when I went out for an afternoon walk.

A lovely vine creeping around a wooden pole, with a mixed bunch of crocheted flowers and leaves. Love it!

Maria Cristina Bellucci's jewellery pieces "...are made using fragments of pencils that have been attached together and formed into a variety of shapes. The forming process reveal the interiors of the pencils, showcasing the wood and the coloured lead."
