Urchin Poofs

Thomas Eyck is a Dutch publisher and distributor who commissions a new artist each year to create a series that unites design and materials. These “urchin poofs,” created by Christien Meindertsma, are made of New Zeland wool and handknit in The Netherlands. I love these and I love that she used knitting in such an unconventional way! And they do sort of look like urchins, no?

Button Memories

These jars of random, colourful buttons remind me of my grandmother who passed away 13 years ago. She had a similar collection.
