NEW: Yarn-Bombed Tree on Long Island (2019)
There’s a new yarn-bombed tree on Long Island!
The gorgeous crochet-covered tree is on the grounds of the Long Island Museum in Stony Brook. It joins several other yarn-bombed trees on the campus.
While I encourage supporting the museum, it is visible without entering.

Between the pattern, the coverage, and the vibrancy of the colors, this tree is a real showstopper!

“We’re very excited to announce that artist Carol Hummel, designer of the crocheted trees is returning to the museum this year to freshen up some of the existing trees and create a whole new design for an additional tree!”

Wow! And look at the creator’s name!
P.S., Last year this museum had a terrific exhibition about slavery on Long Island. Taught me lots about our history. For example, at one point one-third of the population of Brooklyn was African slaves. Our economy was just as dependent on slavery back then as the South.
Are you OK you haven’t posted in a long time?
