One More Reason Not to Toss Old Sweaters

I just found this stool called rollin’ rollin’ from Japanese designer Hiromi Manabe, that takes your old sweater and turns it into new furniture! The piece is a part of the series epilogue – prologue, where designers make pieces that either take something old and make it new again or are able to change and grow with the user. In this piece the stool only works when the user takes an old sweater and wraps it around the seat of the stool, creating a compy soft chair, giving your sweater a new life.
