Artist Sarah Hillienburger creates the delicate knitted organs seen here as well as other really cool stuff like the wooden ‘tree burger’ which she has named, Mc Forest.
I totally adore the way the wool is used to look like a vein on the heart as it is so delicate. I also HEART the knitted brain - I think it would look really cool on a knitted cardigan collar. On that note, I am totally in love with the pom pom outfit.
Worth a mention too, from her portfolio, is the series of phallic-shaped cacti entitled ‘Viagra’.
