Today’s Video: “Guerilla knitting”

Genius:
Magda Sayeg tagged Mexico City and covered a bus in her version of graffiti –- only she’s using knitting, not spray cans, to do the job.

The 34-year-old Texan, founder of the guerrilla knitting collective KnittaPlease.com, faced her biggest challenge yet last week in Mexico City when she covered a whole bus in, well, knitting.
Sayeg’s projects have stretched worldwide including New York and Los Angeles. Yet it’s her artwork in mexico that may be her pièce de résistance.
