This week: make something with your own two hands, a touching tribute to bandanas, our reminder to get out and vote,
plus more.
Vote-spo: A timely feature on photographer Janet Delaney’s 1980s series about public protest, thanks to
It’s Nice That. Friendly reminder: Make your own voice heard on November 6th and v-o-t-e. Find your polling place
here.
Craft corner: Stitchin’ for a cool project to work on this weekend? May we suggest a mini embroidered wall
hanging c/o
Frankie.
On the bandana-wagon: This essay about carrying on a late grandfather’s love for
bandanas is honest, moving and unapologetically New Jersey. Read it in the
New York Times Magazine.
Out and about: What does “going-out top” even mean in our increasingly casual world?
The Cut investigates.
Portrait mode: Storytelling about storytellers. Photographer Beowulf Sheehan shares his experiences shooting
portraits of writers like Margaret Atwood, Chinua Achebe and a
jumpsuit-wearing Emma Straub, over at
The Paris Review.
Word:zhaghzhagh (n.; Persian): when it’s sooo cold your teeth start uncontrollably chattering. (It
is getting pretty chilly—our cozy
sweaters can help with that.)
