About this Product
This extra-large knitting bowl is made from nearly 40 yards of clothesline covered in fabric strips. The base is approximately 5 inches across and the width at the top is 10 inches while the depth is 4.5 going to 5 inches which makes for an extra-large bowl. The fabric is a variety of neutrals to not compete with the colors of your yarns. The loops are extra-large as well to accommodate fat yarns. A button was used to anchor the loops. A small ribbon was used to tie the scissors to the bowl. You can remove them or keep them in the bowl to have handy.
Tower Creations by Madeline
Meet the Maker
I’ve always loved creating, with a philosophy of renew, redo, and repurpose. My work includes scarves with a unique edging technique, fabric baskets, soft fabric pins, and repurposed treasures like wooden spool scissor holders and chipped china jewelry trays.
Driven by both sustainability and imagination, I transform scraps and vintage finds into functional art while also designing new, one-of-a-kind pieces. Each creation is made with care, carrying its own quiet story of transformation.
Inspired by the meaning of my name, Madeline, I see my work as a tower—grounded in strength, elevated by creativity, and open to light. I’m deeply grateful for my supportive husband, our blended family of four children, two daughters-in-law, and three grandchildren—my greatest motivators. And of course, Ollie, our four-legged house boss, who graciously allows us to share her home.
How it’s Made
I have friends who knit and crochet. That encouraged me to make something that would be very useful and helpful. While clothesline is flexible, it offers a stronger body when making bowls and baskets. It takes quite a while to wrap fabric strips around it but the results are amazing. It can be shaped into all types of vessels once you start sewing. I chose neutral colors to not interfere in the colors of the yarns. I knew I wanted bigger loops to be able to accommodate fat yarns. I also decided it would be quite nice to have scissors attached and handy. A different kind of knitting bowl that can be used for knitting or other things.
