When you are knitting this pattern, your fabric will have a bumpy texture resembling an egg crate. Don't worry! This is normal; the fabric will become flat and smooth when blocked.

Simulations back up theory that Universe is a hologram
Artist's impression by Markus Gann/Shutterstock At a black hole, Albert Einstein's theory of gravity apparently clashes with quantum physics, but that conflict could be solved if the Universe were a holographic projection. A team of physicists has provided some of the clearest evidence yet that our Universe could be just one big projection. In 1997, theoretical physicist Juan Maldacena proposed1 that an audacious model of the Universe in which gravity arises from infinitesimally thin, vibrating strings could be reinterpreted in terms of well-established physics. The mathematically intricate world of strings, which exist in nine dimensions of space plus one of time, would be merely a hologram: the real action would play out in a simpler, flatter cosmos where there is no gravity. “It seems to be a correct computation,” says Maldacena, who is now at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey and who did not contribute to the team's work.
Comfy Sews: Shawl Collar Sweater Tutorial
Welcome to those of you visiting from over in the “Mommyhood”! I’m so excited that Shannon asked me to be part of this month long battle she is having going on over on her blog, Luvinthemommyhood – Comfy Sews vs. Cozy Knits. Guess which side of the ring I’m on?
Quantum black hole study opens bridge to another universe
Physicists have long thought that the singularities associated with gravity (like the inside of a black hole) should vanish in a quantum theory of gravity. It now appears that this may indeed be the case. Researchers in Uruguay and Louisiana have just published a description of a quantum black hole using loop quantum gravity in which the predictions of physics-ending singularities vanish, and are replaced by bridges to another universe.

Weird Quantum Tunneling Enables 'Impossible' Space Chemistry
A weird quirk of quantum mechanics is allowing a chemical reaction thought to be impossible to occur in cold gas in outer space. In the harsh environment of space, where the temperature is about minus 350 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 210 degrees Celsius), scientists had thought a certain reaction involving alcohol molecules couldn't take place, because at such low temperatures, there shouldn't be enough energy to rearrange chemical bonds. But surprisingly, research has shown that the reaction occurs at a rate 50 times greater in space than at room temperature.
