156: Chs 13-14 – Flatland

Book talk begins at: 22:30 The Encounter begins!!!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch…it’s raining. And… tornado…ing? How does one say that? We here are unused to your strange terminology and bizarre windy ways.

Some links: Great TechKnitting blog post with links to lots of great and very smart ideas (expensive sock yarn etc); the latest TwistCollective Winter 2009 issue; PopKnits Vintage Knitting Redux with this thick slipper sock; a very useful (and comprehensive) no-purl garter stitch in the round tutorial; a link to the Antique Pattern Library; Craftzine article on how Emboriderer Jenny Hart organizes her work roomFiberRepublic–a EWE-topia of all things knitterly (get it? I didn’t make it up–it’s hers); some pretty patterns here in the Petite Purls Winter Issue.

And finally: How do we love thee, Big Bang Theory!!!! Go Flatland!

Karen in Surrey BC: says to checkout the “excellent film version of this story from 1961 called The Innocents with Deborah Kerr.” (Warning: SCARY!) And I blew it and owe an apology to Groucho. He’s the one who said, “I wouldn’t join any club that would have me as a member” was Groucho.

And Shannon filled me in on another of his zingers for Flatland — Women should be obscene and not heard. 
Heh.

Don’t forget the January Incentive book: Enchanted Adornments!
