Knitta Hits the Standard

In honor of Fashion Week, KnittaPlease installed some of their crafty graffiti outside of the Standard Hotel. The knit pieces will remain there until the 17th, but when we first heard about this project we were sort of hoping Magda Sayeg would be knitting coverups for the hotel's naked guests. Perhaps the Standard should make good with the Bears and adorn the entrance with leather and whips for their upcoming (and possibly canceled) street fair.
