Trend : Knit Bikes

Oddly enough, I can’t stop coming across photos of knit bikes this summer!

1.) Free People clothing company creatively decorated a number of colorful bikes, and bike wheels, for use in their visual merchandising presentation.

All images from their blog (& ps check out the video tutorial I once made for the Free People Blog here! )

2.) This bike has been popping up on many NYC based blogs lately such as Doe Deere Blogazine (where this image is from) . It is a creation of the artist Olek.

3.) If you are pretty crafty at knitting, Dutch magazine Landleven has a pattern for a bike skirt like this…adorable!

4.) This photo collection on Flickr contains the cream of the crop in bike decoration pictures, and links to further images.

All of these bikes are pretty cool, but can any knit bike compare to the knit bus?
