Episode Seventy-two: Just Weave-It!
28/09/2007
I score a Weavette (Weave-It...Weavit?); CheekyRedHead makes some LOVELY sock yarn for you (if you donate in the month of September);Jen has charms for the September Donation Drawing as well.
This
episode: Isolde floats (like small rocks or bits of wood) or doesn't
burn like...not-a-witch..., Tristan finds a Fairy Dog, and then finds another Isolde!
The drama!
Next week is the end of ol' T&I...then on to The Romantics and Frankenstein!
Episode Seventy-one: Sick, Sick, Sick...
22/09/2007
Some...um...interesting crochet (thank you to Dawn for sending the link); welcome to our new sponsor, Knitting Out Loud; a new LYS opens here; what's up with the Weavettes?!; a little info on the insular Celtic languages (thank you Cheeky!); and if you have Nyquil, please send it.
And, of course, don't forget to donate during the last months of the year! You'll be entered in the drawing for the Jen Minnis charms (check out her website button the on the right!) and also SOCK YARN from CheekyRedhead! (It's like buttah.)
Episode Seventy: With a Little Help From My Friends
14/09/2007
I learn more from the best source--that would be YOU.
So here are the cool links: the mag that likes us, the improvement on creating knitting graph paper, Tristan's Leap, and an artist's rendition of the same, Glastonbury, it's Abbey and history, and some of the Arthurian accouterments, and I forgot to mention a blog to watch and a piece of knitting that is as spectacular as it is ingenious.
And, of course, your Liminal Space.
Episode Sixty-nine: A Diller, A Dollar...
07/09/2007
Today we learn a bit from our very own Medieval Scholar, take a look at the Tristan Stone, draw as though we know what we're doing, check out a sock calculator and learn the dimensions to create knitting graph paper on Excel (that would be column width 0.1" and row height .067").
Don't forget to take a gander at the gorgeous pieces Jen created! And another good Arthur/Tristan-y book: White Raven by Diana L. Paxson. OH! And check out who's on our t-shirt heels!!
And some fibery-luvvins from Sandra--her new babies:
Episode Sixty-eight: Okay, So...What's a Morholt?
31/08/2007
Fun music for you (lyrics too!), a crafty article for you that you simply won't believe! (Thank you to Winglake.)
The
next two Tristan stories (we're getting to the lovey-dovey
stuff...don't worry!) for today, "The Morholt" and "The Quest for the
Lady with the Hair of Gold".
And, a new T-Shirt?
