Erika Barcott's Tree Sweater.

Posted by Alex in Pictures on March 28, 2006 at 2:31 pm


From the website:

Outside our building is a sorry little sidewalk tree. At the height of summer, it had about five leaves. A dead glowstick has been dangling from its branches for three months.

Tonight while I was out on a smoke break, I looked at the tree and thought, “Man, that is one sad tree. It looks cold and wet and pathetic. It needs a sweater!”

I went home and whipped one up, it only took an hour and a half to knit. Then another fifteen minutes or so, standing outside in the cold at half past midnight, stitching it up.

    [...] Via Neatorama, Erika knit a tree a sweater : Remember how I said that once I’d had the idea to make a company logo dog sweater, I couldn’t NOT do it? I had another one of those tonight. [...]

    This is one of those moments of silliness turns into action that we all need to do once in awhile. But sadly, that many of us never do.

    [...] This reminds me of Erika Barcott’s tree sweater, as previously posted on Neatorama, just on a much, much grander scale! [...]
