To say Sam Barsky is good at knitting is an understatement of grave proportions.
The award-winning artist from Baltimore, Maryland has taken the internet by storm with his charming jumper designs – inspired by the scenic places he traverses.
Barsky hand-knits famed landmarks and places – and then visits them and takes a picture wearing the jumper.
For Barsky, what began as nothing more than an interesting hobby in 2000 turned into a way of life.
He told Mashable:
I've been knitting sweaters… One after another, featuring either generic scenery or specific landmarks. Anything that crosses my eyes is a potential sweater.
