Tree Huggers

Iowa City is home to a real group of tree huggers or perhaps the trees are just cold and needed a sweater.

Maybe, but this is a wonderful piece of living art on display downtown. Local knitters designed, knitted and installed these tree huggers throughout the area. I am excited to say that three of the knitters are Craft Guild members, Jill, Sara, and Sheri.

Jill is installing her argyle hugger.

Sara's tree hugger is on the left.

Sheri's tree hugger is on the right. As the deary months arrive, these colorful wonders will make us smile. Thanks to all the knitters who took the time, energy and expense to brighten the day.
