Travis Meinolf and the blanket offer project:
Since 2007, Meinolf has woven and given away 32 blankets in an attempt to "[wear] down my own tendency to hoard the product of my labor, to take pleasure in the feeling that I worked for another's warmth and let that eclipse my fetishization of the objects ..." The first were set out in piles, with a sign stating "If you need a blanket to keep you warm, you can have one of these. I wove them out of wool that was given to me."
I can't think of a more beautiful gift to give.
