You have seen the posters, heard the buzz and now I’ll fill you in a little bit more. Otown Bombers will be doing a yarnbomb in downtown Ottawa on May 22nd.

The object of their affection? Yup…crocheted lollipops. These will not give you cavities or a sugar rush but they will lift your spirits after yet another lockdown. That is our hope and intention.

We will add some colour to the drabbiest downtown neighborhood. Yup, I love my hood but it has really taken a beating during the pandemic. We will be yarnbombing mostly Bank Street and sides streets off Bank.

One place in particular that doesn’t need much improvement is High Jinx but we are bombing them anyway just because we love them and they have a perfect front garden. You’ve been warned Karen and Leigh!

If you have a suggestion of a place that is just screaming for a little colourful love just reach out to Justy and we will see what we can do. Also, if the lockdown is not lifted then Lollipalooza will have to be rescheduled, again 😦
