Let the Wind Knit Your Next Scarf

Posted on Aug 09, 2022

wind powers a knitting factory

Wind - responsible for cool summer breezes and cozy knit sweaters!

Fast Company writes that the same wind offering you cool summer breezes will soon be creating cozy knit sweaters. Designer Merel Karhof has created a wind-powered knitting machine by attaching an industrial loom to a 4-foot metal windmill. We can't wait until she comes out with a solar-powered scrapbooker!

 In case you're wondering, yes, you can buy a scarf knitted by the wind, but it isn't exactly a bargain price.
