The idea for this project just popped into my head out of nowhere the other day, so I went with it. It was like candy it was so fun to make! Now I need a tripped out psychedelic hippie bus to fly it from.

I like it, the colors, the symbolism, the design.

mad for crochet! OMG YES I love that bus!! My favorite part of the video is the guy who walks by and just can't help but pet it! i can't believe they call it knitting, tho!!GRRR We hold our hooks high with pride and knitters get all the credit!

My 13yo daughter said, "You would think that if she could cover a whole bus with crochet, she would know it wasn't knitting!"

But you know, I've seen crocheted tablecloths in catalogs and crocheted dresses in fashion magazines called "knitted." Yeah--GRRR !

Ha I love this. When I was in high school, my boyfriend and I would drive around in his beat up old VW bus. I wish we had had this flag to fly in the face of our parents.

Crochet on, sister!

About Me:

Otherwise known as Ms. Busy Fingers.
In my free time this winter I experimented a lot with dyeing yarn with natural stuff like oak bark and pine needles. The colors from nature are so alive! I've been crocheting for several years now - took to it with a vengeance! When I am not hookin, I take care of the rich people's gardens out here on this rock in the sea.
