Yarn Bomb Flash Mob
April 8, 2023
Yarn bomb flash mob—try saying that five times fast. (We can’t. We tried.) Never fear, proper pronunciation is not required to participate in this event, hosted by Up North Arts, Inc. of Cadillac. The arts nonprofit is encouraging residents to do some spring cleaning in their closets and drop off knitted and crocheted items. In turn, Up North Arts will cut up the old pieces and turn them into bright tree scarves to dress up the neighborhood. Yes, we said tree scarves—they’re meant to make the pine stumps in front of the nonprofit’s building look springy and bright! Local knitting and crocheting experts will also be on hand to teach basic skills to those interested in learning the craft. This is just about the cutest and coziest flash mob we’ve ever heard of, and you’ll have two (free) chances to participate: April 15 and April 29 from 1-4pm.
