Knitters in towns across the country have taken to a quirky form of public art – knitting sweaters for trees. Offbeat and strangely alluring, knitknot trees are clad in a quilt-like skin made of panels of yarn knitted by residents and visitors alike. Others have attached photographs, poems, and jokes to the tree’s pockets, creating a unique community endeavor.
