I’m Not Afraid of Stephen King Books Because I Know Maine Isn’t Real I can see you reading that copy of It, your trembling fingers turning the pages, and I know you’re really scared, but I’m going to need you to calm...

Is Maine even real?

Scientist and Knitter reacts to SciShow's knitting video YouTube video by Kristine Vike

Ok, I hadn't seen the Hank Green video that inspired this reaction, but I really loved the response. Smart, informative, and elegantly-busting some old and ridiculous stereotypes. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wx1o...

This is my first time using this yarn and I've already purchased a second SQ. It's so lovely to work with.

Goldwing by Jennifer Steingass in Juniper Moon Cotton + Merino yarn

Definitely check the measurements and gauge before starting. It only worked for me because the person wearing it is tall and the extra long yoke will fit. The thing would be a swoncho if I wore it.

The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle has a narrator inhabiting a different party guest until he can solve the murder mystery.

Also, ibb and obb in The Well of Lost Plots by Jasper Fforde.

Broken Earth trilogy?

How Private Equity is Reshaping the Crafts Industry - Craft Industry Alliance Many of the recent shakeups in the craft world were instigated by private equity investors. A new book explains their motivations.

Good piece from the @craftindustryalliance.org about the leech that is private equity and how it is changing the craft industry (not for the better) craftindustryalliance.org/how-private-... #knitsky

It is so baffling to me how many wealthy and powerful people who have cultivated an effective immunity to any crime they commit decide to be sex criminals instead of the way less despicable and more whimsical quest to eat one of every endangered species.

Also Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series uses time loops as a prison system.

I enjoyed The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle which is a time loop mystery.

The Time Traveler's Wife has time looping but belongs in the Mines of Urrgh.

The Dark is Rising series by Susan Cooper is one of my childhood favorites
Doctor Who Battlefield episodes
Mary Stewarts’s Merlin trilogy
