The Knitting Clock

I think I might need one of these. This clock by industrial designer, Siren Elise Wilhelmsen cranks out a two meter-long scarf every 365 days. Funny, that's about how long it takes me to produce the same thing. Bring on the clock.

  4. I must have one!
    I have a cat and I don't even care - I'd just put it high up out of reach. Besides, it's a clock that makes scarves. What's not to like?
    This is the best thing I've seen so far this week.
    Thanks for posting Paul!
