I thought I'd let you all know about a new product that should be available around about April (according to the website). It is a bicycle basket, made in plastic, but based on a crocheted blanket! There is a story behind the design but she seemed to want to produce something that looked like her grandmother's old hand-crocheted tablecloth. Not only can the basket be used on a bike, it can also be used as a table (upside down) and a version comes with a strap for shopping. You can see it at designhousestockholm.com where you need to go to Products and look for a little picture of a black bike with a vivid green basket which is the fifth picture down in the right-hand column. It is called Carrie.
According to the article I was sent about it (from the Telegraph magazine), there is a store opening in London very soon (it says March, but then the article also says March for the basket being available) on the King's Road. Oh, and for anyone planning on rushing out and buying one, the article also says that the basket will cost 50 pounds! I have absolutely no connection with this product, I just thought you might be interested to know about another lacey product coming on the market.
