The new year may not be here just yet, but as 2010 quickly disappears, the Gregor Calendar 2011 makes more and more sense. This unraveling date-keeper recedes with every passing day. Incredibly simple and yet also poetic, it is essentially a very long, knitted scarf.
Created by Patrick Frey Industrial Design, the Gregor Calendar 2011 is made out of wool. It comes with a wooden hanger for a naturalistic display that will add whimsy to your days.
