We're looking for volunteer knitters/crocheters for this fun project in downtown Lowell. LowellArts! is coordinating the Yarn Bombing of Main Street this summer. Knitters and crocheters of all levels can join the fun. This is a great craft project for teams, too.
Adopt a Tree - to Yarn Bomb!

We have 37 trees selected for you to choose from. Simply reserve your tree now and have your creation completed by mid-July. Not a knitter? We also welcome yarn donations, (the more colorful the better) knitting needles or supplies, too. This is the perfect time to clean out those leftover skeins of yarn gathering dust in the back of a closet. For more info, click here.
