Yarn bombing is a type of street art or graffiti. Like graffiti that comes from a spray can it can vary greatly in style, aesthetics, and meaning. The big difference between yarn bombing and graffiti however is the purpose behind it. While spray painting or tagging is typically meant to claim a place or vandalize (as well as display art and beautify), yarn bombings main motivation is to bring life, warmth, and a feeling of belonging and community
