# Knitted Rooms The ‘City of Stitches' Needlepoint Nature Installation By TrendHead | Published 2008-12-13 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unique-knitted-rooms-danish-art-installation References: [raca.dk](http://www.raca.dk/events_past_isabel.html) & [isabelberglund.dk](http://www.isabelberglund.dk/) I love this crazy [knitted room installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-world-sharp-edges) by Isabel Berglund, aDanish designer and artist. 'City of Stitches' features a [giant knitted tree](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kriskadecor-1) and several outfits that are knitted right into the walls, letting viewers put them on and thereby integrate themselves into the installation. 'City of Stitches' is a brilliant [interactive installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amongus) with cute little details that make it a great art experience for the whole family. **Implications** - Knitting is a pastime that was once considered geriatric in nature, however numerous occupations like this are gaining new popularity.
