Progress photos from Friday - I started with a crocheted mesh piece wrapped around the "seat" and whip stitched along the bottom, then started sewing on individual caps. More to be added over the next couple of weeks! #thefuzzhawaii #tropicalyarnstorm

Experimenting with ways to change the silhouette and volume of the bike rack, without interfering with its usefulness. Evoking a bit of the wet season here in Hawai'i too - we'll see how this holds up under all the rain! More to be added over the next week or so. #thefuzzhawaii #tropicalyarnstorm #chinatownhi

Help us make DIRT!

TheFUZZ has been invited to yarnbomb the sign for an art exhibit (Dirt), and if you’d like to contribute, we’re making and collecting pieces that evoke soil components, such as diatoms, pollen, and fungi. The color scheme is earthy - browns, grays, perhaps a bit of ochre - and we’re using all kinds of fibers. We’re looking to have a mix of sizes and textures. We’re also looking for volunteers to help with pre-assembly and installation (laying out pieces, connecting them together).

Installation and opening reception Sept. 17, 2014, at the Honolulu Museum of Art School, 5:30 - 7:00 pm (we may start installation sooner).

We’ve got some ideas in this list of free patterns, but you are not limited to this list. Let your imagination go wild! http://www.ravelry.com/people/mkcarroll/favorites?q=dirt&in=tag

KNIT Mushroom (Leslie Glenn) Myriads of Mushrooms (Kathryn Ivy) CROCHET Starburst Motif (Katie Chase) Little Urchin Crochet Covered Sea Stones (Margaret Oomen)

We can provide yarn locally (pick up at an Aloha Knitters Honolulu or Mililani meeting). You can drop off pieces at an Aloha Knitters Honolulu or Mililani meeting, at the opening reception, or mail to:
