Have you ever looked at a piece of knitting and wondered, “How did they figure out how to DO that with just two needles and string?”? Whether you’re a picker or a thrower, those techniques had to come from somewhere, and their origins may surprise you.

On the new podcast Historical Yarns from the Archaeology Podcast Network, Rachel Roden and Heather Boyd look at knitting traditions with the eyes of designers, through the lens of archaeology: each episode travels the world to dig up and discuss a different technique, and then applies it to a clever pattern designed by Rachel.

Join us on September 18, 2019 for the first installment in our journey. Then download the pattern here, gather your materials, and get ready for the knit-along! Episodes will air every Friday from October 4th to November 8th, and at the end of the season, you’ll not only have some expert trivia for your next cocktail party, but a gorgeous shawl to wear as well!
