This weekend, the planetary alignment of a snot-ridden child and a mother only recently out of hospital found me in Whitstable with only the junior element of my brood. But things were not entirely as normal. There had been an invasion.
Knitted graffiti - all over the place.
And while Johnny played on the beach
I did a little knitting of my own.
You can't tell what it is? Why, it's a beach hut cosy of course. I kid you not. A group project, that I am very much looking forward to seeing completed.

I love all that knitted graffiti - what was going on??
Look forward to seeing you're group project!

Some of that knitted graffiti looks so rude...so phallic...or am I the only one to have noticed that?
Posted by: Florence | 23 June 2008 at 22:31
Hmm, I was intrigued too so I did a quick google search and came up with Incogknito!! What a great name for the Knitstable knitting graffiti in Whitstable and how cool to see it!

A beach hut cosy?? That is completely bonkers - irresistible!
aaarrggh...why do I have to type my details in every time I comment?

The colours of your cosy are gorgeous - you might need to share the details so I can knit a scarf in them ( I can only knit scarves)

Fabulous knitted graffiti. A beach hut cover sounds ambitious. My hubby keeps telling everyone I'm knitting a cover for the Naval ship.

The splash of blue looks stunning against the greys. I look forward to seeing photos of the cosied beach hut.

Can't wait to see the finished project

Hope you are getting a lovely beach hut to go with the cosy!! With the weather so far this summer it's the perfect beach accessory!

how fab! what a great project. I've seen a whole short documentary/news story about whitstable and the whole re-launch of the art scene there.
Brilliant.

That has to be one of the most wonderfully potty ideas ever - only in this country could such a project be dreamt up!

Never heard of knitting graffiti until today, how cool is that!?
Posted by: sara | 24 June 2008 at 19:46
This is so cool. I love the idea!
And your new project sounds great!
Posted by: seemownay | 25 June 2008 at 12:22
Love the knitted graffiti - what a great idea!

hello there. I am trying to get hold of an email address for incogknito because I have just blogged about them. I don't suppose if you have one that you could be kind enough to furnish me with one could you? I am also trying to send you an email, but failing badly. I'm not very slick in blogland so far!
with warm regards - elsie
