They are! Some had a ribbon on top to tie to keep them up, but because they’re made of wool, which is stretchy and moisture-wicking, and made to your own measurements, they’re warm and stay up without binding.

Yeah, a fichu is what the designer was looking for!

My job is hard, too. No one can obviously be 100% historically accurate 300 years gone from the start. You can say, this is the best I can do with what I have, or it looked consistent so we went with it—those are valid. But to retcon it with “well, we don’t *know* they didn’t have giant plastic needles and super bulky…

These is a replica of a man’s stocking from Gunnister Man, a burial found on Shetland dating from about 1690-1710.

Sure! And it’s a lovely example of contemporary knit design. But it’s not period.

Sorry, I meant spindles and spools, not shuttles.

I am a knitter who has been knitting since age 5, and my family owns a woolen mill and still produces wool and wool and linen textiles today. Wool and linen preserve well and we do actually have quite a lot of needles (metal, sometimes silver, at very fine gauge; wooden or bone at larger gauge) looms, spindles,…

I’m a hardcore knitter and that cowl is so bullshit. No one was knitting on huge needles in the eighteenth century. Period accurate would have been Shetland lace stockings, not that ridic cowl that looks like it came from Urban Outfitters.

Harbaugh then added, “You just can’t bring a wet mule around a hot corn oven, son.”

four parts water to one part vodka leaves no odor and that will get out the smell of sweaty giraffe (i fed a giraffe who rubbed her head against my belly) so you know it’s strong enough for regular BO.

Yes! Ebisu is my favorite but SFO has a ton of good food. And don’t forget you can get the best Irish coffee in America at the Buena Vista outpost in the United terminal. Breakfast of champions.

Excuse me, you meant to say “the best restaurant at SFO is Ebisu, where you can get delicious ramen or wonderful, supafresh sushi.” Tyler Florence my ass.

Women are not put on earth to provide you with a pleasant view.

No one cares about your boner.

I was just thinking “These are contemporary Lady Mary dresses.”

Yes, I am sure Bill and Melinda Gates stay up all night thinking about how they can make bank off pesticides.

They have. There’s no evidence of harm to humans.

Because if you ban GMOs then you ban golden rice and dwarf rice and wheat (which not sterile and are protected by patent solely for the purpose of preventing them from being sold commercially) along with Round Up Ready corn. I am not a fan of agribusiness or Monsanto but that’s like saying no one should use a tractor.

No, but it does indicate you’re scientifically illiterate.

Google the Green Revolution and Norman Borlaug and then get back to me on that.
