Yarn Bombing

 
After an introduction to knit, I became very interested in yarn bombing. Yarn bombing is a type of 'knitting grafitti'. People who are the yarn bombers knit around public objects - from a bus to a tree! I am particularly interested in the yarn bombing around trees and nature.
 
Below are examples of a typical yarn bombing on a tree.
 

 
 
 
I  find tree bombing particularly interesting to me as my knit will have a strong connection with trees/bark and it makes me wonder what possibilities there could be with yarn bombing, could it be a types of reflective textured knit wrapped round the tree? how would my knit look against the bark of a tree?
