A L I F E L E S S O R D I N A R Y Knit the City From knitted graffi ti to guerrilla crocheting – needle crafts have exploded in ways entirely unforeseen by previous generations. Our grandmothers would no doubt approve of twenty-somethings knitting something similar to a tea cosy (which they used to cover their teapots), even when it is large enough to keep a London phonebox warm! This original item of knitwear has been made by Knit the City, a subversive group of knitters who also operate in other capital cities. In Berlin, for example, a woolly ‘Currywurst’ was created entirely out of yarn recently. For those not in the know, the Currywurst is a popular fast food item – over 800 million of the sausage treats are sold every year! Pink Lady Flamingo You may have come across the extravagantly dressed Pink Lady Flamingo, whose real name is Maryanne Kerr, busking on the underground in London. She auditioned for an offi cial licence to perform her music, having experimented with many previous careers. “I’ve been busking since I broke a recording contract with a major record company,” said Maryanne, “because I refused to be dictated to.” She added that she became a busker more than forty years ago and announced that she is in her late seventies now and still busking. 10 unit 1 ring the changes 11 © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org
