Description

Meet the artists who are redefining the tradition of knit and crochet, bringing yarn out of the house and into the world.

Reinventing our relationship with this colorful tradition, YARN weaves together wool graffiti artists, circus performers, and structural designers into a visually-striking look at the women who are making a creative stance while building one of modern art's hottest trends.

Starting in Iceland, this quirky and thought-provoking film follows a few international artists and knitters as they bring yarn to the streets and into our lives in new ways as we discover how yarn connects us all. The film takes us on a colorful and global journey to Iceland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Poland, the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Hawaii, Cuba, the United States, and Canada exploring the endless possibilities of yarn in the world.
