Was Rome's fall due to heavy metal poisoning making Romans dumber?Ice cores that preserve traces of atmospheric pollutants through history have revealed that industrial activity by Romans – particularly the use and production of lead – meant the air the Romans breathed was heavily contaminated. The levels were high enough to cause neurological problems, including a drop in cognitive function across the population. Joe McConnell and his team at the Desert Research Institute published their findings in the journal PNAS.Bats are surfing storms to make migration easierMigrating bats in Europe have to fly up to 2000km while pregnant, but they've figured out how to get a lift from the weather. The bats have been observed waiting for storm fronts, and then surfing the strong winds in front of the storm to save energy during their migration. Dina Dechmann from the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behaviour, and colleagues, were able to tag bats with tiny specialized sensors to track their nocturnal movements during migration. Their paper was published in the journal Science.Squirrels have developed a taste for vole fleshSquirrels in California have been taking advantage of a boom in the population of tiny rodents called voles – by hunting and eating them. This widespread carnivorous behaviour was captured for the first time on videos and photos by a team led by behavioural ecologist Jennifer Smith, as a part of a long-term study of the squirrels. The researchers found dozens of instances of the squirrels killing the voles, which they say changes our fundamental understanding of ground squirrels. Their paper was published in the Journal of Ethology.EEG tattoos could outperform standard electrodes EEG is a valuable technology that allows researchers to monitor the electrical activity of the brain, but standard EEG electrodes are cumbersome and are hampered by the difficulty of attaching them. A new temporary EEG tattoo, made by printing conductive ink on the scalp, could be a step ahead. Luize Vasconcelos, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Texas at Austin helped create this ink. The research is published in the Cell Press journal Cell Biomaterials.To monitor cat brain waves, researchers made them cute hatsAude Castel, a veterinary neurologist from the Université de Montréal, and her team were  studying chronic pain in cats — and ways to alleviate it — when she realized that she could crochet hats for the cats and add EEG electrodes to them in order to study their brains. Their research was published in the Journal of Neuroscience Methods. When North America went to the dogs (or vice-versa)Researchers examining canid bones from Alaska dating to the last ice age have been intrigued by the complex picture it shows of dog domestication at the time. Their findings were published in the journal Science Advances. Signs of the animals' diet are preserved in the bones, and shows that humans were clearly feeding their dogs, a clear sign of domestication. François Lanoë from the University of Arizona led the work.

Puffy mushroomsLaurie Byrne of Chatfield is looking forward to the opening artist talk and hike on Lost Creek Hiking Trail this Saturday. Fiber artist Lydia Hansen will discuss and lead people on a hike to see her life-sized crocheted models of native mushrooms tucked along the trail. Lost Creek Hiking Trail is located 25 minutes south of Rochester. Laurie says: As a teen, Lydia started crocheting, and she has grown her crocheting into these very unique pieces of art. Last year, she made a sculpture garden — all out of fiber, crocheting and making those little pom poms. It was a lot of fun! And this year, she's doing mushrooms and she's adding it to a hiking trail in Chatfield. They are very lifelike. She's done her research. These are all mushrooms that are from Minnesota. She has signage up identifying these mushrooms. Just a very cool idea. The trail is just over six miles. And it goes through public and private lands. It's a beautiful hiking trail, mostly through the woods.— Laurie ByrneMusic from the north countryDuluth musician Zack Baltich recommends Duluth-stämman, a gathering that includes Nordic folk music, dance and workshops. The event runs this weekend, June 8 and 9. Friday's events will be held at the University of Minnesota-Duluth and Saturday's events are outside at Chester Bowl, with UMD as a rain contingency location. Saturday admission is free to youth 17 and under who bring an instrument, and non-performing youth get in for $5. Zack says: So much music is about an audience witnessing musicians play. What is interesting to me about this event is that it kind of removes that wall. A lot of these events are workshops where people can play. People are invited to dance — it's a very community-oriented thing.  It's kind of mind-boggling if you go on their website. Like, 150 musicians are coming from all over North America to play. It's a very accessible event. Tickets go from $5 to $35, depending on how much of it you want to see.— Zack Baltich ASI Spelmanslag performing The drama of codependencyTwin Cities theater maker Kurt Engh recommends the play “Devoured: Notes on Love and Enmeshment,” which explores codependency through three queer, intimate relationships. Written by local playwright Liqing Xu, the show includes depictions of mental health issues and sexual situations. The 60-minute show runs this Friday, June 7, through Sunday, June 9, at the Southern Theater in Minneapolis.  Kurt says: “Devoured” breaks down these three relationships whereby two people co-create this unhealthy dynamic. One starts to relate to these characters only to feel uncomfortable. When you realize how much you relate to this by the end of the play. It's kind of scary. The playwright's writing unpacks these therapy buzzwords — codependency, trauma, triggering — and places them out to this granular level as people try to communicate with one another. How do you prove to someone you love them? How quickly does care turn to harm? And who's right and who's wrong in a relationship? I keep telling people that if you are in a relationship or you're looking to be in a relationship, you should see the show. No spoilers (but) it's not a super happy ending, but at least I think the characters start to realize their own patterns, especially by speaking about it and by recognizing their behavior. Then they can start moving forward with hopefully something that's healthier and in the next iteration.  I'm obsessed with the show “Couples Therapy” on Showtime, in which this psychologist — her name is Orna [Guralnik]. She's iconic — she breaks down the psychology of how people have gotten to these really weird relationship dynamics where you're going, “Why aren't these people just breaking up?” And I think there's this direct line between this play and “Couples Therapy,” where we're seeing how people get enmeshed in these relationships.— Kurt Engh

Welcome to ep 11 of The Crochet Authority pod!! We are taking a glance back at 2023 and reflecting on all the thing we made and did (like starting this podcast!!)

Krissy speaks with Edith Sampson from the Coaker Foundation in Port Union. They recently started a project asking people to donate granny squares they've crocheted, as they're planning to stitch all of them together to make a giant Christmas tree.

Until December, Madison Square Park will be host to the crochet sculptures of Brooklyn based artist Sheila Pepe, the artist's first outdoor exhibition. Pepe first learned to crochet in the 1960's from her mother, and has used the technique to form her sculptural practice. There will be 15,000 yards of crocheted material in the park, and the sculptures will wind through vines, passageways, and light poles. Sheila Pepe: My Neighbor's Garden is on view at Madison Square Park through December 10, and Pepe alongside curator Brooke Kamin Rapaport are with us to preview the work and take your calls.  

Ally and Nic recount what they've been reading, watching and doing while Ally contemplates Indiana Jones Topics include: Across the Spider-Verse Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Wish Dragon The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel Superman & Lois Never Have I Ever She Gets the Girl Truly Devious  ...and the Portuguese language.

I'm so lucky to have the wonderful Marina Scott as co-host on the podcast this week. We, of course, talk about some amazing things we spotted in the Making app, yarn bombing in the news, some free crochet patterns from an unlikely place, oh...and my 21 y/o cat says hi!Music by Despatches.

When Grace Tompkins crocheted a Maud Lewis painting onto a sweater, she didn't expect it to go viral on social media, or to get a message from one of the famed painter's living relatives. She tells us about the sweater people went crazy for — and why it's not for sale.

Hello :) This is the recording of the eleventh edition of my semi-regular Twitter Space sessions. Following on from the previous Space, about Manners & Customs, it made sense to go over a bit of old ground and do a recording specifically on 'barefoot life. Because it's one of those subjects that it's kind of hard to get away from, given, you know, my online brand name, and my apparent hippy vibes. I'm aware that while the recording took place in early Autumn, I'm issuing it as a podcast in mid-Winter which for many of you ... is not barefoot-friendly weather. Still, you can imagine. Like the holiday-based TV programmes I watched as a kid; winter broadcasts for summer planning. I should have added some airy summer music in the background. Usual disclaimer, be aware this conversation took place over the phone and is then recorded directly from playback on Twitter, through my sound editing software, Audacity. I'm fully aware the amount of hestiations, uhms, errs, and ahhs, we do, and the best way of editing them out seems to be not to do them in the first place. Am working on that. But it definitely shows how different I am in a live environment than a pre-recorded, scripted one. Not sure how that works with any potential career in radio I may want. Topics discussed include: * Why I don't like shoes * Places I'm not barefoot - gravel, wild environments, etc * How I judge if a place needs footwear or not * The differences between walking and running, barefoot and shoes * Going barefoot in different weather & climates * Why I don't like mud, have to check Parkrun courses, but do like pavement * The infrequency of blisters and the gradual hardening of my feet * How it's easier to clean feet than shoes * Why I've never noticed ringworm * Twitter's most famous toenails * Foot 'bling' and nail varnish * Crocheted 'barefoot sandals' add +5 to Stealth Checks * People don't notice other people on the street * Hairy toes are icky * How I handle the inevitable online foot fetishists * The difference in cultural attitude between barefoot men and barefoot women * Hiking barefoot, and coping with hills * The problems with barefooting in the Autumn * How to run barefoot * Advice for people who want to try it more often I was interviewed by the lovely Victoria, but you can call her V. A PDF transcript of this episode will be available later. As always, if you have anything to say about the topic, or indeed about my podcasting in general, leave a comment or let me know. You can also sign up to my newsletter and find out about future podcasts and recent blog posts. I also have a Patreon - if you like what you hear, and want to access exclusive content (or just to show your appreciation), then head on over. Until next time, bye for now. :)

Paul belief of die is gain, if I have to be here it's just because of, no no I would not want to die in a battle axe dual because my fear would be one, you probably die slowly bleeding.   Pastor Bill: [9:30] So that came from bat-brains on YouTube the battle ax dual suggestion that newms is responding to.   Pastor Newms: [9:39] I couldn't it's always like to kill someone it's not how I would like to die it'd be very painful slowly getting hacked up it would be epic yes.   Pastor Bill: [9:51] Hear why it's gonna die of cholesterol buildup this is currently eating a bag of Rolos.   [10:11]

Pastor Bill: [10:22] Just going to keep this big going.   Pastor Newms: [10:23] We we've wasted four minutes exactly and no one knows us any better other than we're both not working on any bad habits and want to die easily I mean that's kind of weird dudes that's not exactly.   Pastor Bill: [10:37] Weird dudes.   Pastor Newms: [10:39] Why are you putting cards back over and over again.   Pastor Bill: [10:41] Huh.   Pastor Newms: [10:45] Anyone who's watching can see you your chair is higher now.   Pastor Bill: [10:49] We talking about.   [10:58] I'm just trying to find a good one.   Pastor

of your cards we've pulled that card before.   Pastor Bill: [11:35] Because then all these other cards I would have recognized that come after it which I do every last one of them.   Pastor Newms: [11:46] Yeah okay so.   Pastor Bill: [11:47] We've gone through this whole deck so for the ones I skipped.   Pastor Newms: [11:52] If you were writing an autobiography if you were writing an autobiography what would the book's title be besides your name.   Pastor Bill: [12:02] Life sucks and then you die.   Pastor Newms: [12:06] I once told people mine would just be Hoops still here.

  Pastor Newms: [13:16] Next.   Pastor Bill: [13:17] The life.   Pastor Newms: [13:18] The song is your life insurance doesn't know that that's good.   Pastor Bill: [13:23] The last story of David Biggs holding it was not an accident.   Pastor Newms: [13:27] Yeah oops.   [13:41] Now listening to my wife try to coax the dog quietly while Whispering from the end of the room is.   Pastor Bill: [13:49] What about Justin Timberlake.   Pastor Newms: [13:51] Alright okay.   Pastor Bill: [13:54] His would be it's going to be met the autobiography of Justin Timberlake.   Pastor Newms: [14:00] It's going to be me wow all right so straight into the topic here we go because we are done getting to know each other not tonight.   Pastor Bill: [14:10] All right so we're still in Acts I had a little bit of a moment this week where I thought we were going to be in first Timothy but then after about an hour of study I realized, it was an intrusive thought or something I don't know what it was but it wasn't the topic for tonight.   Pastor Newms: [14:29] Maybe it was just something to get your mind working for a later topic.   Pastor Bill: [14:33] Maybe it's weird though because it was the one about physical exercise and I don't really do that already so yeah Total Physical.   Pastor Newms: [14:41] Not doing it.   Pastor Bill: [14:42] Profiteth little, it was about you know you shouldn't be wasting your time on honing the gains because it profiteth little, I said that right is up the way bodybuilders talk the gains all right.   Pastor Newms: [15:04] It depends on your need for gains and why you're getting gains whether it would profit little or not if that your only thing is to look sexy yeah probably.   Pastor Bill: [15:13] Almost everything you just said went over my head so.   Pastor Newms: [15:17] Okay it's been that kind of week two.   Pastor Bill: [15:22] We're in Acts chapter 2 and we're going to be looking at verses 42 through 47 so let's start there, they have a whoo, they that early church because in the verse before this he talked about that day about three thousand people were added to them to the Believers, they devoted themselves to the apostles teaching to the fellowship to the breaking of bread and to prayer.   [15:57] Everyone is filled with awe and Many Wonders and signs were being performed through the apostles, now all the Believers were together and held all things in common they sold their possessions and property and distributed, the proceeds all as any had need every day they devoted themselves to meeting together in the temple and broke bread from house to house they ate their food with joyful and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people every Lord added to their number those who were being saved, and once again we have to keep in mind that those that are being added to their number are solely Jews at this, they this none of these are Gentiles none of these are non, descendants of Israel there these are all Jews because they didn't believe that salvation in the Holy Spirit, were for the Gentiles yet they believed it was still only for the Jews and that salvation wasn't for the Gentiles, which is kind of a.   [17:13] I don't know it's kind of a rough rough thing to consolidate in your head that they're like yeah we need to save as many Jews as possible so that, in the resurrection, they'll be found worthy of Eternity with God and everyone else is going to go to the pits of Tartarus and and live in torment and because for all eternity because it's not for them it's just for us, the worldview man The worldview Who.   Pastor Newms: [17:44] It's definitely an interesting world view yes, and I think it's one of those where it's like okay and that's why I think when the Revelation was given later that it was for everyone it was very much like a oh my gosh, oh crud why didn't I think about that you know I oh we should have known that like that that should have been obvious.   Pastor Bill: [18:15] Cuz you could you could convert him to come and you, and so then I guess technically you would qualify for what the disciples and the apostles thought about salvation.   Pastor Newms: [18:32] Technically.   Pastor Bill: [18:34] Technically.   Pastor Newms: [18:36] It would be a definitely a very interesting thought process definitely the, one of the things I always find to be interesting with situations like that is is is those moments where, I come to Jesus moment where it's like, oh oh I was so wrong oh crud I've been wrong for years and years oh crud I don't know what I'm doing now you know and, having that aspect is it would definitely be sombering to say the least because it's like oh no, you got it you got it you got to worry about you gotta wonder I mean how, worried Peter and and Paul and just everybody was at that moment going, oh no we've missed out for a little while now like this wasn't like two or three days.   Pastor Bill: [19:39] I just think it's funny to put myself in their in their shoes, Peter has this Revelation from God that salvation is for everyone later in Acts and we'll know we'll get there eventually, and he comes back and he's like hey did you guys realize this was for everyone and their response it doesn't record it quite like this but their response is we're so glad James took over for you as the leader of the church, man that could not have happened soon enough you are crazy bro that is some next-level crazy.   Pastor Newms: [20:17] And then it's like oh wait crowd he's right.   Pastor Bill: [20:18] And then it's slowly they're like oh that actually makes sense hey James did you know this and James is probably like, yeah I was with Jesus Peter you were with Jesus too how come you didn't understand I'm Peter.   Pastor Newms: [20:36] I'm Peter.   Pastor Bill: [20:38] You want to know how to knit a net I can tell you that you want to know how to catch fish I can tell you that.   Pastor Newms: [20:43] I'm really good at cutting off ears.   Pastor Bill: [20:45] I got some sword skills but man.   Pastor Newms: [20:49] Clean cut clean cut.   Pastor Bill: [20:50] This theology stuff I'm still getting there man.   Pastor Newms: [20:53] It definitely, it's one of those where and we've talked about this before it truly shows the, fact that as Christians as people as humans we are allowed to grow, there are times when we're wrong there are times when we're right there are times when we're right but wrong, like when you when you got the right thing but you got it at the wrong time or the wrong situation or the wrong person you know there are you know, it's interesting when you look at things like that because it's like oh snot.   Pastor Bill: [21:38] And then it's definitely one of those major themes of the book of Acts that they grew and they learned and they changed I mean heck Paul goes from going by Saul and, literally holding people's coats so they can throw stones at a stoning to killing Christians himself to becoming a Christian, and asking people to call him by his Jewish name instead of his Roman name Paul and says salt.   Pastor Newms: [22:13] Oh you started fading out.   Pastor Bill: [22:17] Um that's that's some major growth.   Pastor Newms: [22:22] So Pastor Bill is trying to say something but we're not sure what that is and he's Frozen with a great look on his face.   Pastor Bill: [22:28] I said that's a major growth Arc right there.   Pastor Newms: [22:32] Yeah we got going so it was going from holding coats to killing himself too, robot robot robot robot robot silence Frozen robot robot what I said was so.   Pastor Bill: [22:50] Becoming a Christian and going by his Jewish name instead of his Roman name Paul instead of salt, that's a major growth Arc.   Pastor Newms: [23:07] And and the church themselves it's interesting to see often, you know where it started where it's at it appears the big two bigs took a screenshot of it I didn't this time.   Pastor Bill: [23:24] You guys and your screenshots.   Pastor Newms: [23:28] Only when you're that Frozen because it's just fun, it's interesting to see some of the, changes, as the church grew and as people, we're given Revelations and were learning things and more you know it's interesting to see, that growth and then it's interesting to see what didn't change you know some things didn't, and the understanding of certain things as the books are written in as you know when you look at, the gospels and then you look at the early church and then you look at the early church but slightly later they're definitely different themes and.   Pastor Bill: [24:24] As far as the church is concerned I mean hear their meeting everyday, it going to the temple to have a meals together and they do this is a daily thing that they're doing and then later you know Paul gets saved, Paul Works serves in the church for 18 years before he think of that in the ministry on his own and then we see in his writings he start to referencing things that the church wasn't doing before like meeting on the first day of the week, to have a service and not so much meaning everyday anymore they're doing their normal lives every day they're just getting together on the first day of the week, and you know doing Ministry to each other the first day of the week instead of being together everyday, so it's interesting that within that first two decades or so, they went from we're all in we're kind of share everything we have and everything belongs to everybody and we're going to sell all we have and and you know be one body and then within two years within 20 years, um they more resembled just the weekly Church like we have now, and that's just really really interesting I don't even want to call that growth I want to call that, complacency Maybe.   Pastor Newms: [25:52] I want to call it.   Pastor Bill: [25:54] Because while they were being hunted they were so meaning every day and then once Christianity became mainstream they dropped it to start it only meeting once a week.   Pastor Newms: [26:06] I think it's also just the aspect of.   [26:14] Lifestyles and making disciples and bringing people in, there is a time of well now what.   Pastor Bill: [26:34] It almost gets that pyramid scheme.   Pastor Newms: [26:36] Yeah.   Pastor Bill: [26:37] Vibe of unsustainability you know, like we came in we saw everything we had now I have nothing left to contribute or meeting every day I'm not making an income to contribute we're all literally just living off of the incomes of the new people that come in when they then sell everything they have, okay.   Pastor Newms: [26:56] And so it's definitely it's definitely at a certain point where you go okay we have to you know, there are some people who should be spending all of their time studying and I and you know that's when you start to get the church hierarchies that's when you start to get the you know all of those aspects.   Pastor Bill: [27:22] And they did two at the beginning they had that whole everything is everybody, point of view if we look at Acts chapter 4 starting in verse 32 now the entire group of those who believed were one heart and mind and no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but instead they held everything in common, with great power the apostles were giving testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus and great grace was on all of them, for there was not a needy person among them because all those who own lands or houses sold them brought the proceeds of what was sold and laid them at the apostles feet, this was then distributed to each person as any had need Joseph A levite from Cyprus by birth the one the apostles called Barnabas this is the guy that later than goes, Paul, to some Ministry which is translated son of encouragement sold a field he owned brought the money and laid it at the apostles feet, and that was a common thing for them to do but yeah completely unsustainable.   Pastor Newms: [28:37] Cuz you get to a point where all right where are we living.   Pastor Bill: [28:49] I mean understand we can we can make a farm we can you know maybe so.   Pastor Newms: [28:54] Not if we sold all the.   Pastor Bill: [28:55] From the farm but where are we going to get the land we yeah we sold the land.   Pastor Newms: [28:59] Yeah we sold all our land we sold all our.   Pastor Bill: [29:01] Yeah so like.   Pastor Newms: [29:03] It does get to a point where you're like.   Pastor Bill: [29:06] So this whole argument where people like we you know the first church was they were socialists they were communists.   Pastor Newms: [29:12] Well now.   [29:19] I will say though they continued in taking care of the weak and the sick and the Widow you know that part wasn't and we as the modern Church, you know some churches are getting back to it, we clear a lot of churches are doing really good work but there for a long time the church as a whole, that went straight to the Wayside.   Pastor Bill: [29:49] But even here in the early church when they realized it wasn't sustainable, and yeah nobody had any meat that's great but it was completely unsustainable even then while James is still on the scene right because we've talked about the higher art the leadership of the church, Peter James then Paul before Paul took over while James is still a myth you know leading the church, he boils it down and says you know what we're to take care of Orphans and widows, that's it everybody else is on your own go figure it out.   Pastor Newms: [30:24] And it's because you know it's sustainability you know if everyone sells their property where we sleeping everyone hanging out at the apostles house are they did they sell theirs if everyone.   Pastor Bill: [30:36] Well they did have by the time Paul was converted they were all on the run which nobody owned anything so they could be on the Run, um so you know the Holy Spirit worked it out in their favor in that manner but they basically lived in these giant tent settlements they would set up these tents that could all just be broken down thrown on their back and moved at a moment's notice, and they taught started teaching everyone how to make.   [31:11] And they would make the tents and they would sell the tents and so it kind of you know they started learning a trade, and this is where you hear about Paul being a tentmaker and the whole Tent Maker anointing and all you're going to be a Ministry you got to be a tentmaker you meaning you can't be full-time Ministry you have to have a job to to support, being in Ministry you got you're going to be a 10 maker you got to you got to be making an income, which again you don't want to be a burden on Believers and at the same time, some people are called to full-time Ministry and they are due pay, it's a thing now are they do millions of dollars pay year, probably not I say probably because that's really none of my business that's between them and God probably not are they do hundreds of thousands a year maybe depending on the size of the church, you know what workers worth is wage and so they just have to fill that out with you know between them and their board and and with the Lord and figure out you know, yeah is a tentmaker type thing is this a is this the thing where the church can pay you and so yeah.   [32:37] I try to be nobody wants to buy my chance well very few people want to buy my tents so but that's neither here nor there, which people wanted to buy my tents I'm a committed tentmaker.   Pastor Newms: [32:59] You do work hard when there's work.   Pastor Bill: [33:00] When there's work to be done oh man I don't, I don't get it why so I have such a hard time getting hired Greg he says he'll buy a tent thank you groggy I appreciate it but I don't think you can afford my tents anyway no junk.   Pastor Newms: [33:27] You know I was.   Pastor Bill: [33:28] I don't literally make tents let's let's just put that out there not a.   Pastor Newms: [33:34] Tent from you if you were making a tense in actuality I'm clear on that I support you and so many you know best friend ways I'm buying a tent, trust I might from from your from from from Bad Brains like nice crocheted.   Pastor Bill: [33:52] Crocheted take you know that wouldn't keep anything out weather-wise I mean you be warm you definitely be warm in there but if it started raining.   Pastor Newms: [34:01] Now that's for the inside of the regular 10.   Pastor Bill: [34:06] I'll just make a crochet 10 that go on the inside of the tent as if tents aren't hot enough already.   Pastor Newms: [34:12] And then and then you put one on the outside to be pretty.   Pastor Bill: [34:15] Oh my goodness.   Pastor Newms: [34:16] Yeah igloo.   Pastor Bill: [34:20] How many thousands of dollars that would cost to crochet.   Pastor Newms: [34:22] I will I will let bat-brains do that math for me and tell me at some point when she wants to but.   Pastor Bill: [34:34] So many schemes of yarn so many.   Pastor Newms: [34:37] So many the I had something it was good.   Pastor Bill: [34:50] You were going to say something.   Pastor Newms: [34:52] But it's definitely like a situation like the Ecclesia house you know we don't have any paid staff currently.   Pastor Bill: [35:02] All right well while you're trying to remember what you were going to say oh wait I guess I'm frozen.   Pastor Newms: [35:05] I remember are you frozen again oh he's Frozen again he doesn't exist he can't hear my good idea.   Pastor Bill: [35:13] He's trying to figure out what he was going to say but while he's Frozen.   Pastor Newms: [35:15] A good one and he doesn't just.   Pastor Bill: [35:16] Um here on the podcast you should go read Acts chapter 5 about what happens when, you lie to the Holy Spirit and then.   Pastor Newms: [35:29] He's almost back he's robot.   Pastor Bill: [35:31] For it so.   Pastor Newms: [35:33] He's almost back.   Pastor Bill: [35:35] Am I back on the line.   Pastor Newms: [35:37] He's almost back.   Pastor Bill: [35:38] No I'm not back on the live at all I just lost.   Pastor Newms: [35:40] Maybe nope he's still gone sadly.   Pastor Bill: [35:44] Should go read acts 5 about and a nice and Sapphira they sold a piece of land and then they keep back a portion of it and.   Pastor Newms: [35:57] Can y'all hear him and just I can't hear him.   Pastor Bill: [35:59] To give that portion I am back on the line I was just telling the podcast about, go ahead and read an X5 to follow up with what we're talking about tonight about selling all you have and giving and ananias and Sapphira you know making a sale, and yeah and then lying about it.   Pastor Newms: [36:21] Yeah not a good idea.   Pastor Bill: [36:21] My restream chat and give just completely.   Pastor Newms: [36:26] What you're having some internet hiccups you're definitely having some internet issues at the moment, one thing I was thinking and this was just something that I came to me when I was in conversation with I don't remember whom today I talked to a lot of people today, we need to after the event we need to put up some of the shirts and stuff for people to buy.   Pastor Bill: [37:02] Yes.   Pastor Newms: [37:04] That needs to be I know you have a personal store but we should set up a, either a church store or it goes to your personal I don't know how that any of that stuff kind of works I don't do any type of Commerce but now I was talking to two bigs about it at lunch.   [37:31] Yeah.   Pastor Bill: [37:34] And this is everyone's least favorite design of everyone that I pulled that's why I started with this one tonight you know start with the least favorite and get onto the favorites after that.   Pastor Newms: [37:47] I'm going to be honest I didn't like it looking at it, in Black in camera it's not as bad as just the design.   Pastor Bill: [38:03] Yeah.   Pastor Newms: [38:14] But.   [38:18] I think that it's actually not as bad as I thought it was.   Pastor Bill: [38:26] As I'm a good bottle.   Pastor Newms: [38:27] Biggs that's that's exactly what it is good job.   Pastor Bill: [38:30] It's how big the canvas is that I create to show off the it's the wide canvas aspect.   Pastor Newms: [38:40] What is just a small picture it's not any good but on a full-size canvas it's.   Pastor Bill: [38:45] Full size canvas like my chest, right so this week go read chapter 5 of X find out about ananias and Sapphira, and then I sells the they sell the property and then and then he brings the money but he lies to the Holy Spirit and it's not about, when you read it it's not about, whether or not they gave one hundred percent of the sale price it's about the fact that they said yes it's 100% And then it actually wasn't.   Pastor Newms: [39:23] Yeah it's that aspect of of you know.   Pastor Bill: [39:29] Wow.   Pastor Newms: [39:30] Even what.   Pastor Bill: [39:31] She brought me a picture of a okay okay that's very hippie is it crochet tent.   Pastor Newms: [39:39] Oof.   Pastor Bill: [39:39] And a crocheted glamper.   [39:47] I just put the flash does images up onto the the livestream so if you're listening on the podcast and you want to see the crocheted tent you will have to go to Facebook twitch or YouTube and scroll forward to about, 47 minutes in to see the, crocheted glamper and the crochets tent image.   Pastor Newms: [40:11] Yeah it is it's busy and they definitely used whatever they had laying around.   Pastor Bill: [40:18] What they did is they made smaller pieces and then put them together so.   Pastor Newms: [40:25] I mean obviously.   Pastor Bill: [40:27] Yeah they didn't just crochet one giant piece no that would be insane.   Pastor Newms: [40:34] But you would think if you were going to do that yes bat-brains it was so ugly, if you were going to do that you would do patterns that complemented each other, those particular ones looked like what you would see at a festival where there are wild.   Pastor Bill: [40:51] Poor people are doing LSD yeah.   Pastor Newms: [40:53] Growing you know that's I think that's the only way you could enjoy that.   Pastor Bill: [40:58] Welcome to Woodstock back there we've got the crochet 10th that's where you're going to get your vegetables, hey vegetables and then over next to that there's the crocheted glamper you're gonna go over there and get some grass like grass I mean we'd, and by the way I you know what I mean.   Pastor Newms: [41:17] Billy.   [41:22] That was that was terrible yeah anywho, yeah that was uh oh I'm scared, what did you post groggy.   Pastor Bill: [41:43] It's a guy he put a link to a clip in the twitch chat.   Pastor Newms: [41:51] Oh he put a link to you showing he clipped it for us.   Pastor Bill: [41:56] Oh he clipped me showing the crochet tent and crochet glamper.   Pastor Newms: [41:59] So you could so that way if you wanted you could put

Newms: [42:18] It does it looks good on you and that comes from someone who didn't like the shirt at all.   Pastor Bill: [42:25] Even like this design it does it looks good nice.   Pastor Newms:

Bill: [45:54] Well in the very beginning beginning I was releasing a podcast today and then we were meeting once a week.   Pastor Newms: [46:02] Sustainable look at what we did.   Pastor Bill: [46:04] We were meeting once a week and trying to then discuss okay so all the podcasts that came out this week what you learn what you want to talk about with you and then we net we you know narrow that down to okay just one podcaster week, and I would release it and then everyone have a whole week to be able to listen to it and we'd get together on Sunday and nobody would have listened to it and nobody was ready to interact and nobody was and and you know, we just kind of we move on from there and so now with covid now we're here.   Pastor Newms: [46:40] Which is a completely different place but it's a good place.   Pastor Bill: [46:46] So bad Blaze should differ.   Pastor Newms: [46:47] No just different and we're continuing to grow.   Pastor Bill: [46:51] Heart of this was always Fellowship face-to-face being able to interact being able to say your piece being able to ask questions.   [47:06] Anyway that's why we encourage people to come Live While We're recording the podcast and be a part of what's going on so there's that all right you have anything you want to add to the topic for tonight.   Pastor Newms: [47:19] No   Pastor Bill: [47:22] You were pretty chatty about this topic more chatty than I expected you to be.   Pastor Newms: [47:26] I mean it's valid since we're doing throwbacks.   Pastor Bill: [47:29] You said it's valid.   Pastor Newms: [47:33] You know it's one of those things where it's important to look at, everything like we always talked about you know don't take the two verses you want to look at, out of contacts don't take you know it's that whole like you hear some people talk about the, innocence fire that's why you can't lie to preachers you're like no that's, that's not what God's not going to strike you down for fibbing God's Gonna strike strike you down, to make a point because you lied to the Holy Spirit multiple times to make yourself look better, not oops I made a boo-boo I said you know I said the wrong thing I did the wrong thing you know it was blatant we're going to do this and we know what we're doing and we know it's wrong but, we're going to do it and make ourselves still look.   Pastor Bill: [48:45] Nobody's going to know they'll never know you know that whole audio Tick Tock nobody'll ever know they'll never know they knew, they knew when you said it and drop down dead in there.   Pastor Newms: [49:04] Well and let's be honest, if everyone in an area are selling their properties and and giving to the church and those types of things right, it's pretty obvious what properties are worth and so when it's like here's everything we have you guys weren't this poor.   Pastor Bill: [49:33] You either got ripped off or you lying right.   Pastor Newms: [49:50] Yeah, we do we do sometimes still have the fellowship in the living room at the same time because when groggy is here it's it's zadie groggy in Phoenix and sometimes the girls all in the same room but it would be, nice to I do agree with Sadie that I do miss everyone's face every week.   [50:20] I just realized why, I don't like the design it just came to me it's not equal.   [50:37] That's why you moved a certain way and I went oh yeah that.   [50:48] I just.   Pastor Bill: [50:48] If you say so.   Pastor Newms: [50:50] My OCD doesn't like the fact that there's not an equal number of a Sands because of the word loved.   [51:03] Which is fine because of everything it you know, but that's that's the reason because the shirt crinkled and I went oh.   Pastor Bill: [51:14] It's fully known and and and and and and and fully loved.   Pastor Newms: [51:18] No that's just how many times we have to keep saying it for people to believe it sometimes.   Pastor Bill: [51:24] Seven times if you hear something 7 times before sinks in.   Pastor Newms: [51:28] Yeah but no for the known in Philadelphia but no fully known it but no full enough.   Pastor Bill: [51:37] Then we get the all you mean fully known and still full no no no no don't add words to what I'm saying that's not what the scripture says this is fully known and there is no, still there is a there are yet stills, in the Jewish scriptures in the early New Testament where it says Point Blank we hated God, yet still but it never says you were a sinner and even still no it was you chose sin and still, hmm the message is God knows you fully and God loves you fully, we're not having a conversation about whether or not you're perfect because if you've been listening to breed Manifesto, we believe everyone should be trying to grow and better themselves and no one is perfect period, not as an insult not as a slight not as a try to get out of something trying to get out of saying something no we're not doing that we literally believe everyone should be moving forward everyone should be growing and changing and getting better, Anyway come and join us at Dallas Pride.   Pastor Newms: [53:02] Yeah.   Pastor Bill: [53:02] On June 4th what was that face you just made.   Pastor Newms: [53:09] My my my computer did something I didn't want it to and I don't know why but it.   Intro And Outro Music   Pastor Newms: [53:22] It just kind of sideways itself.   Pastor Bill: [53:30] All right well that's all we have for tonight I love you have a great week.   Pastor Newms: [53:37] Be safe out there.   Pastor Bill: [53:38] And until next time.

Brian sent Trisha a picture of a cool crocheted sweater and Trisha is now trying to make one.

We have a Crochet-A-Long starting and project updates and we reconnect after a hectic month. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts or Subscribe on Android or Subscribe on Google Podcasts Marsha's Projects Atlas (Ravelry link) by Jared Flood using Navia Tradition. The pattern is also available at his website. I have made the tiniest bit of movement. JoAnn (momdiggity) came to my house to offer help with my colorwork. She was a tremendous help and it was lovely to finally meet her. My plan is to knit a swatch with #10 needles and then determine my next steps.   Nanny Meier's Tea Cozy by Amelia Carlsen. I am using Cascade 220 Heather in Red Wine Heather (9489) and green Irelande (2429). Nothing to report here. Still waiting for Brian to measure his teapot so I know when to start decreasing for the top of the tea cozy.   Garter Squish Blanket by Stephen West. I am obsessed with this project! Knitting with main color #7 of a total of nine and started repeating the contrasting colors. I'm knitting #2 of the second set of contrasting colors.   Cast on a pair of basic socks using Patons Kroy Socks in the colorway Meadow Stripes. Kelly's Projects Faye's Flower Blanket, made with the Persian Tile Blanket pattern by Jane Crowfoot is done and delivered.    Another finished project, already mailed and no pictures! Fennec hat by Alicia Weisberg-Roberts and worsted booties from a free Bernat pattern. Used Invictus Yarns Captain Superwash in the Driftaway color. From the Heavyweight yarn club, September. After I finished those I used acrylic scraps from the blanket to make a slightly larger striped hat and a pumpkin hat.    Dark Green Forest by Christina Korber-Reith. The yarn is handspun and overdyed. It's a 3-ply made from CVM fleece from deep stash (2005 ish). Crochet Crochet Along Dates November 1 through Jan 10. The new Crochet Magazine, Moorit Magazine, has launched! We're having a Crochet-A-Long to celebrate Alyson Chu's great adventure!

It's a coffin shaped piece of crocheted lace with a skeleton inside. Ana Wanamaker has some interesting Victorian creepy doilies. If you like Blue Willow or Calamity Ware, check out the Deathware pattern. Marsha should make it to hang on Mark's wall of Blue Willow. Pebblebrook Beanie by Wish Upon a Hook has an interesting stitch pattern and would look good with multiple colors.  Bees in Clover by Michele duNaier I wear my Habitat Cardigan a lot!

Knitting and fun in 30 min or less.  Shownotes can be found at windsweptknits.com.  You can find me on IG and Ravelry as WindsweptMonique and on Facebook and Twitter as WindsweptKnits. Ep 94 recorded 9/17/21 Segments this week include: Deep Thoughts, FOs, Wips, Out and About, and I've Got Sunshine Note on Ravelry – all links to Ravelry in the show notes are clearly labelled as such.  All yarn links are directly to the manufacturer or dyer's website. FOs I honestly don't remember all the stuff I've finished in 6 months, so I'm just going to highlight a few things. Slice of Summer - Ravelry – my New Year's caston using BaH yarns watermelon shawl ball (wool bases available as of today – cotton/bamboo currently out of stock).   I finished 2 new design samples, can't talk much about them yet, but I am very excited at what is coming. Crocheted water balloons  WIPs Priestess Coat – by Morale Fiber in Lion Brand Shawl in a Ball.  I'm using the Feng Shui colorway, a grey-to white gradient. Another design sample is in progress, a tank top made with HiKoo Popcycle!  It's a 50/50 bamboo/polyester blend and every skein uses 2 recycled plastic bottles and you know me, I love recycled and reclaimed fibers.  New socks! These are for a dear friend for Christmas who loves handknits. It's in a new-to-me sock yarn Bamboo Pop Sock in the Sunset colorway.   Diamond Painting If you've never done diamond painting before, think of it like paint by number or cross stitch, only faster and sparklier.  You get a canvas with a chart on it, covered in a tacky glue-like substance with a protective plastic cover and packages of multi-faceted resin pieces, either square or round, and they're called either drills or diamonds.  Peel back the protective cover and use the included diamond pen to place the colored on the matching spot on the chart.  Some drills are pearlescent and really sparkle, some are glow-in-the-dark, it's lots of fun. I'm currently about 60% through one called Bubble Bubble Chocolate Trouble. This is based on a painting by Randal Spangler and made by Diamond Art Club.  This painting is so cute, it's two little green dragons wearing witches hats and stirring a giant cauldron full of hot chocolate, with a haunted house in the background and packages of cocoa and marshamallows on the side.  Stash Just this week I bought 3 skeins of Go For Faux Thick and Quick from Lion Brand.  This fake-fur yarn will be the cuff and hood edging for my Priestess Coat mentioned earlier. Shameless Self Promotion In a week I'll be launching a new pattern, a shawl named Line Where The Sky Meets the Sea launching on Friday, September 24 and it will be available on Ravelry, LoveCrafts and Payhip and to my loyal listeners, listen to the podcast for the coupon code.

We break down what Singapore defines as an act of vandalism and how Crocheted or Knitted works fits into that definition.   INSTAGRAM @crookedcrochetsg | EMAIL crookedcrochetsg@gmail.com | WHATSAPP +6591272743 | WEBSITE www.crookedcrochet.com

Message me! Life in Focus I’ve had a tough couple weeks with pain. Lessons learned: Listen to your body. Adjusting your plans/goals to be kind to the only body you get is absolutely OK. Don’t skip stretching. It’s important! Adjusting my routine can and often is a good thing. Waking up early to walk in the summer because it was light already and would be too hot later was a good idea. Now its dark at 5:45a… Its time to adjust. It shouldn’t take THIS hitting me so hard to get me there, but it sorta did. I’m just getting back to things now but I’m going to start thinking about what my routine looks like. I’ll be active and I do like having a routine. Habits work well for me… but that can look different in different seasons.  On a Happy Note A 2 hour deep tissue massage with my favorite massage therapist.

As we age, those of us who have been creative over the years can look back at all we’ve accomplished and be amazed. We can also ponder what we’d still like to learn and remember those crafts that have truly meant the world to us. Perhaps we even recall how sewing and crafting have been the bright light comforting us through dark times. In today’s episode, Jennifer sits down with her mother, Liz, to chat about the crafts, sewing projects, and most loved tools she’s used over the last few decades. Reminisce with us about flour sacks, needlepoint projects, and what, truly, is the reason we create and share. Cheers! Show Notes and Mentions -Because all costumes are awesome!

Hello there and welcome to The Crochet Circle Podcast and the show notes for Episode 35 – Sockdale   In this episode, I cover: Old dog new tricks; Sock CAL; Final Destination; En Route; Feeding the habit; Quick News Beats; Big Up and J’adore?   This podcast is sponsored by my online crafting company, Provenance Craft Co.  Thanks to everyone who tunes into the podcast whether it is through Stitcher, Podbean, Spotify, iTunes or the YouTube Channel. Your support and engagement are really appreciated and makes running a podcast very special and worthwhile.    If you would like to support the podcast, you can do that through Patreon:   1 – Old dog new tricks I was in our Ravelry pages the other day and came across a link that was helpfully posted to try to help people understand what kind of crocheter they are.  You may be a yanker, rider or a lifter.  Your style affects whether or not you are going to hit row tension/gauge and by crocheting in the Rider style, you should be able to hit gauge with most patterns (unless the designer is a Yanker or Lifter).  This can help you to get the right number fo pattern rows/rounds and in the case of a Yanker, stop you from having to use more yarn to get the right length of the project.   I thought I would raise this because a Crochet Clan member said that they managed to get gauge on their stitches, but not rows and their way around that was to add more rows.  This has happened to me in the past too.    Yankers – tend to pull the golden loop (first loop pulled up from yarn round hook) and create shorter stitches because they are yanking down on the loops as they work through each stitch.  With this technique, you are likely to create shorter projects unless you do extra rows/rounds, Riders – this is really where you want to be because your hook is being worked parallel with your row/round and the height is where it ideally should be.  When you pull through a loop from your first yarn round hook, your hook should almost be pointing diagonally down so that you are not extending the loop and you can continue to build the right height as you do the remaining parts of that stitch.   Lifters -  A lifter is the opposite of a Yanker because they extend the golden loop every time, creating a taller stitch.  With this technique, you are likely to create taller projects overall.   If you want to know more about this, I thoroughly recommend looking up Deje Jetmir’s YouTube video.  She takes you through what a difference it makes and how to overcome being a Yanker or Lifter.   2 - #SockAlong 2018 CAL This CAL is well and truly underway and I am mightily impressed with how many socks are being crocheted and the progress so far! It runs from Saturday 29th September – 31st October 2018. There is a series of blog posts taking you through the intricacies of crocheting socks. You can join in with crocheted or knitted socks. The chatter thread is on Claudia’s (Crochet Luna’s Ravelry page), the FO thread will be hosted by Kathryn from the Crafternoon Treats podcast Ravelry Group and I am heading up the Instagram #SockCAL2018 #SockAlong2018. Sock patterns are available from various designers. There will be prizes for winning entries into the Ravelry FO thread and those using #SockAlong2018FO and I showcase some of them on the podcast. The FO thread is already open in Kathryn's Crafternoon Treats Ravelry Group and there are entries already!

Yay.  I plan on writing a couple of blog posts on steeking crochet because I really think it should be incorporated into more designs.  I much prefer tapestry crochet in the round rather than in rows.  So, here is the design and the ways I liked to style it:   Discount codes are set up on both patterns on Ravelry.  Use CROCHETCLAN at check out to receive 50% discount. I also finished my knitted version of Arete and here it is too.     4 – En Route It is all about socks!  Crocheted socks.  I have two different pairs on the go.  Both are using the same Fallen Leaves pattern by Vicki Brown.  I am making both pairs with some of Kathryn from Crafternoon Treats yarn so that I can do a side by side comparison.  Both are 80% Corriedale and 20% nylon, but the bright pink one is non-superwash and the light blue is super washed.      I am intrigued to see the difference between the two and so I am making them both into the same crocheted sock pattern.  My plan is to wear both pairs one day each week for a number of months, put them both through our weekly wool wash and test them side by side to discern whether there is any material difference between superwash and non-superwash.   The yarn is working up really well and is giving great stitch definition with the Fallen Leaves which is beautiful.   5 – Feeding the habit Well, I was at Yarndale.  I am now on a bit of a yarn ban again and I think I am going to try to take it right through to 2019 and assess the situation then. So, here is what has been in my shopping basket this month, bearing in mind that much of it is for designs:     Left - 'Orchard' in Bear Twist by Bernie at Bear in Sheep's Clothing Middle and right-hand side yarn are both Crafternoon Corrie Sock from Kathryn at Crafternoon Treats   Right photo shows all the lovely gifts I have receievd during the month.  Lost of sticth markers and notions.  There were chocolates and tablet...     Left - Alpaca Rose yarn from Border Mill Right - crochet hook roll and bag from Clarisabeth from Crochet Cakes Podcast and DaintyByCrochetCakes Etsy shop, Chocolate bag and Patons Kroy sock yarn from Claudia at Crochet Luna Podcast and esty shop     Left - BFL, mohair and Pecora Brugno from Officina del Colore Naturale  Right - Poll Dorset Lambswool from Kate at Northern Yarn   6 - Quick News Beats  Global Hook Ups – The next Global Hook Up is due to be on Saturday 13th October 2018 (BST) Time: Saturday 13th October 2018 8:30 PM London BST Join from PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android: https://zoom.us/j/4750475819  The meeting ID number is 475-047-5819 and you will need to join via Zoom which you can do here:  https://www.zoom.us/join There is then a second one on Sunday 14th October at 9am (BST) Time: Sunday 14th October 2018 9:00 AM London BST Join from PC, Mac, Linux, iOS or Android: https://zoom.us/j/4750475819  The meeting ID number is 475-047-5819 and you will need to join via Zoom which you can do here:  https://www.zoom.us/join Making Things App - A new pattern app is in the making.  It is called Making Things App and you can take a look at their website and Instagram.  This is quite a different take on how you can access patterns form designers.  Think of a Netflix monthly payment with access to all of the patterns on the app.  I will report back when I know more about a launch date but what I can say is that as a designer and user of paid-for patterns, I am excited about this new platform. C2C CAL - Rosina of Zeens & Rogers podcast is hosting a corner to corner (C2C) CAL.  It starts on Sunday 7th October and runs until 17th November.  You can get all the details here in the blogpost.   Glasgow trip – I am heading to my favourite Scottish city on Saturday 24th November.  If anyone fancies meeting up, I will be heading to The Queen of Purls for about 3.30pm.  The yarn shop is at 1069 Argyle Street, Studio 8, Second Floor, The Hive, Glasgow, G3 8LZ and is open until 5pm. So, if you are in or around Glasgow and fancy squishing yarn with me and going for a coffee, please drop me a line.   8 – Big Up My friend Sophie has taken up podcasting.  She is quite a few episodes in now and you can catch her easy breezy, positive catch ups and see her massive WIP pile over at the A Spring Snowflake Podcast over on YouTube.   Yarndale organisers – it is a fabulous event that is very crochet welcoming and I think becomes more and more crochet friendly every year.    Everyone with a zombie apocalypse plan.  In a short and unscientific poll at Yarndale, three out of eight people do not have a zombie apocalypse plan.  In case you don’t have a plan, here are some tips:  https://comicvine.gamespot.com/profile/masterkungfu/blog/my-zombie-apocalypse-survival-plan/101215/   9 – J’adore Song – I listen to a fair bit of folk music and Spotify brought me ‘Dark Honey’ by Martin Simpson, Andy Cutting and Nancy Kerr.  It is just beautiful.  Claudia – Claudia from the Crochet Luan podcast was over for Yarndale.  We had a blast.  It is just as well we live far apart because I don’t think the world is ready for the amount of naughty we would create together!   Fay x   Instagram: Crochet_Circle_Podcast  Instagram: provenance.craft.co   Instagram: FayDHDesigns YouTube: The Crochet Circle Podcast Crochet Clan on Mighty Network: Invite

Brainy stuff starts at 28.25 and Behind the Redwood Curtain begins at 44:50.   Catherine talks about finishing her PANEM Katniss Cowl Wrap by Dahlia in Bloom and the Two-toned Tawashi by Maryann Walsh.  Margaret talked about knitted and crocheted jewelry:  Ribband by Laura Nelkin, Crocheted Wrap Around Bracelet by Yuli Nilssen, Kaitlyn Necklace Rose by Javori Designs, and the Gatsby Necklace by Shaina Bilow. Catherine lays the foundation for understanding brain chemicals that make us happy and how knitting influences that.  She talks about Dr. Barry Jacoibs, EMDR, Betsman Corkhill and Stitchline. In Behind the Redwood Curtain, Margaret talks about the Mad River (the California one.) And in the knitting tip, Margaret talks about flipping a blocking board upright to save space.

Crochet can decorate crochet like nothing else.  This video looks at how.
