WILD YARNING | HOW TO COMBINE NATURE WITH YOUR CRAFT

I am passionate about inspiring others to find their creative niche and connect it to nature. The reason I started my blog was to inspire other makers to take their makes into the outdoors; to feel the peace and energy that I feel when I am outside. My goal is to spread the word that nature and yarn combine beautifully and anyone can join in – whether you look out the window while crocheting, create a warm hat to hike in, or climb a mountain with your yarn in your pack. I want to create a community around this idea, so I started the hashtag #wildyarning to get this rolling and am so excited to see people participating. I want everyone to have fun, both creating their makes and then taking them outside!

SLITHERY SNAKE YARN BOMB PATTERN

The Slithery Snake Yarn Bomb! Leave this little guy someplace where others will discover it and brighten their day. Though using it to yarn bomb is optional, it is pretty cute on its own!

This little snake is cute, bright, and tough. I used Bernat Maker Home Dec Yarn so that the snake could stand up to weathering. It is incredibly easy to customize the length to whatever you are choosing to yarn bomb; just crochet more or less rows on the body and pre-measure your intended yarn bomb target.

If you haven’t heard of yarn punk, it is:

“An individual that incorporates yarn into their everyday lives with confidence to express oneself.”

I love this idea and especially love the community sprouting around this concept and Vincent’s blog, it’s so welcoming and fun!

I decided to head on down my own yarn punk journey and started by adding crocheted sleeves to a jean jacket vest I had just embroidered my new logo on.
