Yarn Bombed Schwinn

Sounds odd yes? First, check out what it means if you don't know here and many graphic examples here.
My bike (Schwinn Legacy Cruiser) is done entirely with leftover stash yarn and crocheted by hand. Mostly done in sections and fitted and attached afterwards. The seat was the first thing done, then it just took off from there. I suppose some might say that this is not a true "bombing" in the sense that it was done to beautiful something plain such as a drab landscape like it's usually done. Honestly it was done out of boredom and me saying "I can do that!" and so I did. Will I ride it like this? You betcha! As soon as my aching back eases up.
Thanks for looking and each image will open up quite a bit larger if you choose to click on it. That's all for now.

Curious? How strange and just ummmmm weird is this? To each his own. If they actually sell it I'd like to know what kind of person would enjoy a piece such as this though. (scratching head)

Inspiration

I'd like to call myself a dollmaker. Let's just say that I've been known to make a few dolls. Not to mention bears, rabbits and other assorted creatures, but I prefer to call them critters. Lately, I've had very little time for any of these and I feel a sense of loss because of it. Creating these things are an outlet for me. Not everyone understands this and those that do understand are there to talk to, but ones closest to me are not. This can be hard. I'm searching and pouring over inspirational things to get me started back into doing more of what I love. Time is a major factor however and once I see an open window for it, I'll jump through it if I'm quick enough. More on this later I hope...
