The White Knitta

Spotted on Pike Street, Capitol Hill, this graceful Knitta work adorns a bus schedule sign in front of the Cha Cha bar. More sophisticated than the previous pieces posted here, the rolled collar and slouchy fit are a nice counterpoint to the hard gray steel and right angles. The red accent stitching balances the white/gray tones and livens the piece up considerably. The placement at a bus stop improves chances that it will be seen by many. Let's hope it'll survive the demolition of the entire block as developers make way for a retail/condo edifice.

The rumors are true, there's a Knitta piece in Ballard right in front of the guitar shop on B'lard Ave. Looks like its (ahem) cut from the same cloth as the Capitol Hill piece... or at least knit from the same yarn. Have not seen nor heard of any new pieces recently, so perhaps the local knitta cell has gone back into sleeper mode, napping and knitting, waiting to strike again...
