Coptic socks, 4th-6th c CE (Common Era), not knit, but some kind of stretchy fabric formed with stacked loops. In the Museo Archaeologico Nazionale di Firenze.

Today’s #kitchen storage project. Someday, the window on the left (now looks into a fully-enclosed breezeway) will be gone.

I’m enchanted by the serifs on the “C. M. Locke 1866” carved into this granite wall through which my local rail trail runs.
