This is outside a knitting and crochet shop in Bewdley. 8)

I’m glad to see they knitted a lock for it as well.

Awesomest indeed! SingleStitchWorld -what hook for paviours?

Is anybody else intrigued as to whats hiding under that wool if its just rubbish or some quality retro elastomer sprung goodness.

The detail is impressive. Not just the lock, the cables as well.

It’s called yarn bombing. Big in Blackpool due to some friends of mine, I’ll see if I can find the monster parking meter covers

Yarn bombing 😯
Looks like a GT to me

Yarn bombing, I’d never heard of that, although there’s a tree in the park only a few yards away from that bike that’s been done and I’ve seen a small section of fence railings in Bridgnorth done like it as well.

Apparently the steering’s a bit woolly…

Some more..

Locks, cable ; very good; but lack of mudguards alas make it unsuitable for the British climate…

Have you seen the price!

Someone’s being fleeced………

Top one is a Raleigh Activator 2. Full suspension and everything!

Will they shrink if they get wet, park up a 29er and come back out to a 26er?

Activator 2. I knew I recognised the shape. Well spotted sir.

I assume its ridden regularly… else its just taking up a parking space…

Ridden?
Stealth chain then.

What tyres for…

They haven’t managed chain stitch then.

I cant find the parking meter one but THIS is typical of their stuff

We saw lots of yarnbombed bike racks along seafront in Southsea last year.

I spotted this bijou little number at Lustleigh Cleave on Dartmoor last year.. cute

Is this a thread about yarn, or a yarn about thread?
