These Flocks

These Flocks is a site that sells all sorts of unusual knitted things ranging from huge knitted rugs,

(and yes, this was knitted on enormous needles)


To mittens which, when you order them, have a tag that corresponds to the animal whose fur it was knit from. So cool!


And lastly, they are selling this book by Christien Meindertsma who spent the last three years researching all the products made from a single pig. Amongst some of the more unexpected results were: Ammunition, medicine, photo paper, heart valves, brakes, chewing gum, porcelain, cosmetics, cigarettes, conditioner and even bio diesel. Nice.
