Lots of knots

Knowing how to tie knots can help you in many unexpected situations, like when you have to bundle up sticks for firewood, hang up a hammock, or join two or more ropes together to climb down from a tower where you’re being imprisoned by an evil witch. (Growing obscenely long hair could also help you out of that last predicament.) The clever clogs at Dusen Dusen used a bunch of knots and cotton rope to create this colourblocked tote bag, and honestly, we really dig it. It’s going for around $77 at dusendusen.com
