Let it swim
Last summer, I found the knitted bicycle in Lower East side… and another one is in DUMBO right now! On York street near Front street. (These pictures were taken 1.5 weeks ago, it was still there this weekend)
After the post last year, my friend Hine saw it and she found the artist: it is done by olek — if you look at the website, you see so many knitted stuff, it is so amazing to look at all her work! If you ever found a knitted bicycle or something else like this, then it is olek.
Good morning :) Hope you had a nice weekend… I went to the bake sale (it’s happening again this Saturday, I donated some letterpress cards and will be there this week!) and the fundraising event to support my friends and my country. It felt really great :)
Came across this awesome poster by Beauchamping and had to share — REMEMBRANCE. All profits donated to disaster relief.
All the cities affected by natural disasters are listed under the “REMEMBRANCE The Coming Together As One” and the graphic is a simple circle (also, Japan’s country flag) — LOVE the concept and simple yet very strong message here.

Another lovely heart I found — Cherry Blossom Heart print by This Paper Ship. Do you see Japan shape in the heart? 90% of the proceeds go to the American Red Cross’s aid effort in Japan.
Hoping all of our hearts go out to Japan…
