A COMFORTABLE SPOT

Protecting the knees from hard ground and clothing from grass or mud stains, this kneeler is the perfect companion on days when the garden demands daily attention. With hard-wearing waterproof backing, a soft recycled wool cover and wadded with recycled textiles, it provides generous protection as well as a comfortable, moveable seat for hard benches. It is designed by Anne Hyde and Paul McGreevy, who work from their studio in a converted barn in rural Derbyshire, and measures 51 x 36cm. A handy loop makes it easy to carry or to hang in the shed.
