There is a tree on route 25A in Stonybrook, Long Island that is covered in a knitted blanket that is very colorful. It must have taken the knitters a very long time to complete this task, and it is just beautiful. These were taken several years ago, but the tree still stands and is still beautifully embroidered.

Crocheted, knitted, tomahto, tomato, all I know is it is quite nice to look at and a very good job.

These trees are at the Long Island Museum and are quite an attraction,They are beautiful when seen in person rather than in a photo.
