Long Stocking Cap Patterns
LaDonna writes:
I started a Ravelry group (The Scut Farkus Affair) dedicated to the great handknits in the best holiday movie ever: A Christmas Story. I've created two free patterns on my site for long stocking caps inspired by the ones worn by Ralphie's brother Randy and his friend Schwartz.

Knitted Electromagnetic Shields
From the technophobic department, Zoe Papadopoulou at the Royal Academy of Art is making these shields for anything electric, knitting a copper filament in her cozies and electrically grounding it. This provides some shielding from the electromagnetic fields these devices emit. Truth is, however, that the waves running through the air (cell phone frequencies, mainly) are a lot farther reaching than those from your toaster. That's why they invented shielding fabric and paint! They're still nice as a social commentary art piece, though. - [via] Link.

Twinkle's Weekend Knits - Win a Free Book!
For all you fashion lovers out there, Wenlan Chia has a new book out called Twinkle's Weekend Knits: 20 Fast Designs for Fun Getaways. Her first book, Twinkle's Big City Knits, was a big hit and one of my favorite knitting books of all time. In this second book, she uses again her signature chunky yarn to create some fun casual, yet stylish pieces you can wear on the weekends. The book is broken up into three parts: 1) Friday Night - Twinkle Through the Night with stylish pieces like the Nightfall Cropped Top featured on the cover, 2) Saturday Morning - Fun Alfresco, and 3) Sunday Afternoon - Last Night Away. Her designs are the perfect for layering as she happens to bring her fashion-edge to knit wear design.
