Hong Kong got 'yarn-bombed'

by Hiufu WongMagda Sayeg hugging the "I heart MK" sign that's been covered in her signature knits. There's no warmer way to say it.
It's the middle of a steaming hot summer in Hong Kong, but American artist Magda Sayeg has covered parts of the city's most crowded shopping mall with wool.
Sayeg is famous for "yarn-bombing" -- she dresses mundane street objects around the world with colorful knit patterns. 
The 38-year-old artist arrived in Hong Kong last week with two assistants from her Knitta, Please team to work with local handicrafters La Belle �poque and students of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University on a special project for the Langham Place shopping mall in Mong Kok.
