Not Without My Sister

New Girl!

Ep. 199

Beatrice has a new job! By the time you're listening to this episode, she'll be deep into her first week so please send her alllll the good vibes and pray she doesn't have any broken zippers this week of all weeks.


Things we mention…


In case you wondered, Rosemary is knitting the Seahorse blanket from We Are Knitters, which seems no longer to be available on the website. This is what the finished product is supposed to look like; if you'd like to give it a go, just DM Rosemary on Instagram and she'll send you a little pic of the (very easy and beginner-friendly) pattern!


If you'd like to read along with our in-person book club (and we'll do an episode on the book for Patreon in a few weeks!), the book is Theory of Bastards by Audrey Shulman.


Beatrice's borderline-obsessive love of Margaret Heffernan continues apace. In this episode, she talks about Uncharted.


And this is the version of The Gruffalo that we have (and Atlas does, as Granny predicted, love it).If you're in the US and would like to pre-order Rosemary's book, you can do that right now on bookshop.orgAmazon.com or from Barnes & Noble.


If you have questions, queries, comments, critiques, email them to us! Get us at notwithoutmysis@gmail.com. And while you're at it, leave us a five-star review! We love those (and those who post them).
