This teeny wind turbine is deliberately cute and allows the green energy activist to wear their allegiance on their shirt, scarf or even hat. A super simple and fun knit that you’ll whip up in no time whatsoever.

Construction:
This teeny wind turbine is made from three separate blades, joined together and attached to a length of i-cord. Stiffening agents and florist wire help to give it some structure.

Skill Level:
Easy

This pattern was originally released as part of WARM: a large-scale collaborative knitting project that explored why the earth is warming and what we can do to make a positive change.

Knitters of all skill levels contributed to this large-scale piece that was exhibited at the Art Gallery of Ballarat in September 2016. It now has a permanent home in the Geelong Wool Museum.
