Saving the world – one stitch at a time

Knitta Please. Renegade knitters, touching up the inner city one stitch at a time. Pictures on their MySpace page and Flickr.
“…A tag crew of knitters, bombing the inner city with vibrant, stitched works of art, wrapped around everything from beer bottles on easy nights to public monuments and utility poles on more ambitious outings. With a mix of clandestine moves and gangsta rap — Knitta was born! Today, Knitta is a group of more than 10 ladies of all ages, races, nationalities, religions, sexual orientation… and gender.”
The web has the phenomenal ability to collect like minded individuals from around the globe and spread the word of good projects. Recently my site partnered with the United Nations Environment Program to support their Plant the Planet: Billion Tree campaign.
