Method knitting comes to PDF

"You gotta be the soup" says Beau, the artist behind "Send Noods", an art installation at PDF consisting of a kiddie pool full of large, knitted ramen noodles. The artist claims that over 300,000 stitches were made to build the piece, taking the artist over six months of 40-hour knitting weeks.

The artist explained to Wonderfuse News that to deepen her connection to the piece, she ate only ramen noodles for the last six months. "My sodium must be through the roof", she said.

The artist has been telling her camp mates about the project for six months, including details on the soup-only diet. Friend and campmate Hoagie confirms the grueling process, and Beau's obsessive focus on bringing this project to completion. "Good job by you, Beau," Hoagie said.

Although the noodles in the installation look, feel, and in this reporter's opinion, taste like knitted udon noodles rather than knitted ramen, Wonderfuse News is more interested in stirring up fish cakes than trouble.
