Cosby Yarnbomb 2024 - Behind The Scenes

Take a look behind the scenes of the 2024 Cosby Yarnbomb as the yarnbombers get the various displays together at various "stitch up days" before heading out into the village itself to place them, they wrap lamp posts, post boxes, buildings and more in bright colours covering anything that looks like it needs brightening up !.

The Yarnbomb is the culmination of work through the year by not for profit group Gather, Create, Grow who`s aim it is to help combat loneliness in the community and recovery and ultimately bring a bit of joy and magic into the community and peoples lives.

To see the end result of their hard work please watch my film looking at the completed yarnbomb linked at the end of the video.

The film begins at a "stitch up" event where the pieces take shape before heading out with the group as the completed works are placed ready to welcome visitors to the annual event, we see the merry go round horses being placed to create the perfect effect around a tree, plus meters of french flag bunting through the nook to bring the Olympic games theme to life.

Watch to the end to hear a specially created track "knit my love" which accompanies the credits.
