2010's Time to Design Award was presented to Norweigan Siren Elise Wilhelmsen for her project Developing Time—Time Developing, a clock that knits 48 meshes per day, and produces one two meter long scarf per year.
The project was Wilhelmsen's graduation project at the University of Arts, Berlin. Time to Design, a fellowship at the Danish Arts Workshops designed to help young design talents at the beginning of their career, will give her time, space and resources to bring the project closer to the end user. For her, the next step is to find ways to personalize the production of the knit, perhaps programming the machine to respond to movement, sound, and light.
Time to Design is a partnership between the Danish Art Workshops, Normann Copenhagen, Link UP, and the Danish Association of Wood and Furniture Industries, sponsored by OeO, B14, and Kallow.

I think that's the most imaginative piece of design I've seen in a long time... I love it.
I'm not sure which I like more, the knitting clock, or the knitting wind turbine:

Agree with Shirty here this design is one of the best I've seen in years, it has everything, every aspect about it is great, in it's philosphy, execution, function - one of those designs that rocks you to your core and makes you wish you had come up with the idea! Well done, my sincere compliments!
My jaw dropped with this. So amazing!
Utterly fantastic!! Brava!!!
Absolutely BRILLIANT!!
Absolutely fantastic - I am a knitter and have seen the round knitter tool not unlike 'French Knitting' I only wished I had thought of this idea - it is aesthetically pleasing as well as being a very creative design - Good Luck to a very inspired designer
