A little while ago I was in Amsterdam and spotted these colourful characters in someone’s canalside window – they are bobbins for French knitting, which I used to love doing as a child. It seems to be the custom in Holland to fill your street-side windows with interesting things for passers-by to look at. With its leaning buildings, bridges and barges it’s a very visually stimulating city.
