He Sees You When You're Sleeping

So, our final surprise for this issue is up. Yes, you are all clamoring to know why it wasn't ready yesterday for Solstice. Because it's not for Solstice. It's for those who worship at the altar of Santa Claus. Because it's our magazine and we can do whatever the hell we want.

Behold:

Errata - Stabbity Stab Stab

zabet@theanticraft.com (Zabet Stewart) — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 15:21:22 -0700

It has come to our attention that something involving smoking crack happened back at Imbolc. It's the only explanation we have for why Stabbity Stab Stab was so very, very wrong. It's been fixed now, and it was so wrong that we'll not list the corrections here. Just go get yourself a nice new copy.

Lughnasadh 2008 Issue "Mélange" online!

zabet@theanticraft.com (Zabet Stewart) — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 12:15:44 -0700

Greetings AntiCrafters,

After not having my house blow up twice (ask the gas company), I can finally say that the issue is ready to see the light of day. We present you with 12 projects (lots of knitting in this issue, not only including the instructions for those fabulous Vlad the Impaler hats by Dale Hwang and Dee Brown, but also our first polymer clay projects) and five book reviews to shock, delight, inspire, and amaze you.

Enjoy!

One Last Burst of Bacon Before We Go

zabet@theanticraft.com (Zabet Stewart) — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 17:23:00 -0700

Bleary Morning orange-and-bacon squares will provide you with way too much sugar for breakfast, but who cares? And we promise this is the last time we'll try to get you to eat something with bacon where it normally wouldn't be. The next issue is due out on July 15 (remember, that whole moving up production schedule thing?), so keep an eye out for it.
