A lot of metal beams and all of bench seat were covered with mostly knitted scarves. Kept on and together with velcro sticker tacks and mini self-closing plastic ties.
It definately did add color and character to almost stark streetscape! It would have lovely to see more of same but in different themes. THAT would really worth the trip to see!
What would they do with all these scarves when they are done with it? It will be donated to homeless shelters. Talk about right timing!
