An ageless crafting technique delivers a fresh piece of  modern home decor…

Here’s a stylish way to transform, and re-use a wine bottle. Hand-knitted by Dutch designer Erica Hogenbirk, the Bloom vase cover is felted so it is soft, firm and slightly elastic. Each cover features a zippy retro-modern, green and white pattern.

A perfect display piece for a few flower stems, stately grasses or greens…cloak a bottle, create a vase.
