Considering that the popularity for knitting is still going strong, I'm pretty sure that the Stitch Lamp will sell like hotcakes. Not only does it give a hobby some purpose and direction, its vintage and quaint feel complements some of the hottest designs out there today in fashion and home decor.
Created by Swedish company LampGustaf, the Stitch Lamp may need more attention than most lighting, but you'll hold more of an appreciation for it once it's completed.
The Stitch Lamp comes with eight colors of yarn and darning needles.
