Lola's Easter Crafting



Water Tower Pencil Cozy Video
What can 32 miles of yarn do? Promote design education AND help the homeless.

Artist Robyn Love and a team of 7 amazing crocheters created this amazing Water Tower Cozy -- installed on top of a New York City building to promote the D&AD (a design education non-profit) Pencil Awards -- with 32 miles of Wool-Ease Thick & Quick AND only 3 weeks!

After it was taken down, the cozy traveled to the annual Knit-Out & Crochet event at the Mall of America, where volunteers took apart the panels to make blankets for the homeless. Click here to watch the video!
