Living Fences: How-To, Advantages and Tips

Sustainable living fences can hold animals, protect soil, provide livestock fodder, offer food or compost, and will last generations.

This would be an amazing way to add extra protection on your property, or protection for your garden. Plant the living fence over paper-sigils for protection, or pest control, and viola! And can you imagine making your own casting circle, imbued with protection for every time you go to use it? So rad!

A free pattern for a Fuck Trump Scarf by  G.B. Threepwood.  From the designer:

“This illusion knitting scarf looks like innocuous stripes from the front, but says FUCK TRUMP when viewed from an angle. Also included are charts for several smaller, optional motifs which could be included at the ends or middle of the scarf: an asterisk, a cute heart, and a Twitter bird and speech bubble…

In the true spirit of the Trump administration, this has not been test knit. Sad!”

This is a really neat technique.

Machrie Moor Stone Circles & Standing Stones, Scotland

Machrie Moor Stone Circles is the collective name for six stone circles visible on Machrie Moor near the settlement of Machrie on the Isle of Arran. Six stone circles are visible on the moor immediately east of the derelict Moss Farm. Some circles are formed of granite boulders, while others are built of tall red sandstone pillars. The moor is covered with other prehistoric remains, including standing stones, burial cairns and cists. The stone circles are positioned over previous timber circles. A radiocarbon date of 2030 ± 180 BC has been found for the timber circle at Machrie Moor 1. Several hut circles can also be seen as low rings of turf-covered stone. The six stone circles are situated below a prominent notch on the skyline to the northeast where Machrie Glen divides into two steep-sided valleys. At the summer solstice the notch is intersected by the sun at sunrise, and this may explain why the circles were sited in this location.
