Yarn Bombing Los Angeles consists of a group of core members, and an extended network of contributors. Core members meet regularly, come up with project ideas, secure installation locations, apply for funding and other opportunities, respond to press inquiries, assist with work installation, and other general administrative duties. YBLA contributors contribute pieces to installations once the project idea and the location has been secured, and are integral to the success of any YBLA project. Additionally, YBLA has an active facebook group on which contributors, core members, and interested audiences can exchange ideas and photos.
