We're heading eastward this month, friends, talking cableknit sweaters and codfish dinners.

As the non-vegetarian of the pair, Steph took on the cooking this month, coming out of a coddy ordeal with some very edible and nostalgic codballs. Torey may not cook, but she sure does knit, and she is HAPPY to talk about cables for as long as anyone will let her.

What we're obsessed with in history

Torey: Ravelry's recent no-Trump policy announcement, and the attending conversations around racism in knitting communities

Steph: The Delineator on archive.org, and the wonderful Victorian outfit she's going to make!
