Friday, linktime...
Amica and Maria, two textile nerds (according to their own description) have started a new blog called Historical Textiles.
Gillian Polack is collecting recipes from SF fandom, and she wants yours too. The recipes will end up in a book - fandom deliciousness!
apc has a monograph about an excavation from York online, and it includes textile-related finds (among them a needle): Blue Bridge Lane & Fishergate House.
More research literature? Uni of Groningen has a publications database that might make you happy.
If you prefer something with more pictures, here's a collection of bizarre images from medieval manuscripts.
Sad things are happening too, unfortunately: The Tsock Tsarina has returned to her blog, but for the worst of all reasons - to announce that she has terminal cancer. I learned how to knit while following her instructions on how to make socks in "Tsocks 101", and her sock designs are something that always make me smile. Fuck cancer.

Thank you for sharing this. I hope this means I get loads of wonderful recipes from Germany. I have no German recipes, so far! And none from costumers and sewers and designers!
