George Barratt-Jones decided to make waiting for your train in the winter a little more enjoyable... by making a man-powered machine that creates scarfs in under five minutes.

The pedal powered machine keeps you warm by moving, and you are making a scarf while you wait!

"Started with an assignment to make something with a weaving technique for the Design Academy Eindhoven. I like making projects that are useful and make people smile. So I decided on making waiting for your train in the winter more enjoyable," Barratt-Jones said.
