The Thousands

Those blissful summer Sundays in the park have edged their way back into our lives, as days lengthen and shirtsleeves can be worn above the elbow without the prickle of goosebumps. We go wherever there is a spot of sun and a mossy patch of green, and we lie there insolently until the very last sliver of light drains away into darkness. We dine outside for every meal. We share cheese and wine and muse upon the tetrahedral formation of a book galaxy. And then we wish our picnic rug had sleeves so we didn’t have a reason to go home after sundown, or rather that we had a reason to be closer.

This picnic rug does have sleeves. And sleeves enough for two! Produced as content for the new food journal Condiment – Adventures in Food and Form, alongside ffiXXed’s SS10 collection, it is designed to encapsulate Condiment’s ideas and exploration of food and creativity and food and community. The beauty is in its functionality as both a rug to dine upon and then a garment to be shared by more than one person. Available in light blue and speckled grey Japanese fabrics, with hand-sewn tassling, this product is limited to a mere 15 worldwide. The sooner you lay claim to one, the sooner your summer Sundays can drift pleasantly beyond dining at dusk.
