Yarn graffiti

I saw this on the street Sunday while walking around in Soho.

It's my first experience with what's called yarn graffiti or yarn bombing. I'd read about it, so I was pretty excited to run into this piece. Apparently people (probably women, don't cha think?)  knit or crochet around the most obscure objects when no one is looking and create removable splatter of fun art. It makes you smile, right? No harm done, something hard and edgy made soft and pretty. I love it.
