Hand-Knitted Birds are a Cuddly Homage to Our Feathered Friends

Birdwatching by Various Project, Inc.

Elizabeth Beer & Brian Janusiak are the masterminds behind Various Projects, Inc. a multidisciplinary creative collaboration that started in 2005. One of their ongoing projects is called Birdwatching, and it’s a cuddly homage to our feathered friends. The first subject was a hand-knit pigeon, but it only grew from there. Now, there’s an “ever-growing flock of state and regional birds.” The Blue Jay, Cardinal, Carolina Wren, and Mourning Dove are just some of the charming soft sculptures available in their Project No. 8 online shop.
