Something truly unique is blowing into Noble County this September!

As part of the America250 cultural program celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States, Dutch designer Merel Karhof will bring her Wind Knitting Factory to the Mid-America Windmill Museum.

During this special presentation, visitors can see Karhof’s innovative, wind-powered knitting machine in action as she creates scarves inspired by the colors of the American landscape. 🧶🌾🌬️

The project connects two windmill traditions—the Netherlands and the United States—through art, design, and innovation. The Wind Knitting Factory is inspired by the principle of the American windmill, invented by Daniel Halladay.

Karhof will travel throughout the United States, visiting historic windmills, museums, and cultural institutions, demonstrating how the power of wind can be transformed into something creative and unexpected.
