What's better than a lumpy, cozy, hand-knit sweater? A lumpy, cozy, hand-knit sweater with Space Invaders! Etsy seller n2Imaginations has one for $60. Link (via Wonderland)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Methinks it will go for more than $60 surely. What a fine cultural object.

I had a friend whose father made these for lots of people around 1981-83. He worked in manufacturing computing and he made all kinds of sweaters based on computer graphics.
