I regularly visit Di Overton of
Designer's Block - she comes up with some beautiful and inspirational stuff. I just had to share one of her latest finds - These chairs upholstered in hand knit!
They are beautifully and meticulously knitted by knitwear designer
Melanie Porter, who 'undertakes the entire process herself and everything, from the restoration and upholstering to the individual, crocheted buttons, is done by hand.
The result of this incredibly labour-intensive process is a stunning and unique work of art, destined to be a future family heirloom.'
Have a look at
Jesse's magnificent work too!

Oh my word, that is amazing. I simply cannot grasp how some people have so much patience!!!
Makes me wish I was a better knitter, although I wouldn't have had the creative thought in the first place. I love it when people use something ordinary in an extraordinary way... These are beautiful!
How beautiful they all are!!!! I especially like the one with gray back and colors on the seat.
Beautiful, unique chairs - I really love the first one :)
Wow! Simple & stunning, thanks for sharing.
I LOVE these chairs!
