This is a pretty late post, and I actually intended to show you one of the things I knitted for the convention. Unfortunately I got sidetracked sewing something and lost track of time, so we'll do the knitted thing tomorrow.
Today's song is The Copper War by The Cog is Dead.

The Road to Salt City Steamfest - Day 7
Do you know what I like about this particular post-a-day? I started on the first of the month, so the post number and the date are the same. It should be considered mildly sad that I happen to be this bad at remembering what post I'm on that I need to check to get the numbers right.
Today's song is my absolute favorite in the whole playlist. Seriously, I love it so much last week I set Spotify to private mode and listened to it about 50 times on repeat. It makes me happy.
Professor Elemental's back with the Tom Caruana remix of Splendid. Plus he's got this awesome music video that goes with it.

The Road to Salt City Steamfest - Day 6
Hey guys! I'm back.
Before I give you the song of the day, I'm going to review a very cool steampunk book. It also happens to be a knitting book, so even better! It fits with the blog's name (for once in my life).
The book is by The Ladies of Mischief and it's called Needles and Artifice. The book has two main parts. The first is a rip-roaring adventure story involving the ladies. The second part is a series of absolutely stunning patterns. They have beautiful sweaters,
See you tomorrow, steamboys and steamgirls!
All images are from the book, are by Jessica Glein, and are displayed on their respective Ravelry project pages.

feminine, lacy tops,
and my personal favorite, a double knit, fingering weight scarf with a non-repeating pattern. I'm making one of my own (but I won't post photos until I'm a bit farther along).
If you're into knitting and steampunk, you absolutely need this book. No, you really do. Now stop arguing with me and buy it.
For today's song, we're going mystery solving with Abney Park again. The song is Victorian Vigilante and it's one of my absolute favorites.
See you tomorrow, steamboys and steamgirls!
