Scottish Rose Honey Cake


Rose of Attar Geranium tea cakes are littered throughout the herbal cookbooks. They’re beautiful fairytale creations and European delicacy. A way for the rich royalty of Europe to show off owning a glass greenhouse in the 17th and 18th century, but they still taste yum. Today we can all afford scented geraniums at Lowes which seems like a wonder gift to home gardeners. Seems fitting as looking into more AI fabric zero waste dying which seems to be geared for knitting, specifically reimagining traditional woven patterns with 80s flair. Scottish tartan and plaid patterns would be the most useful for homeknitting machines testing out AI fashions as we’ve all seen NYC displays over the years that wrap window displays in knit pops of Christmas winter colors. Scottish sailors are historically tied to knitting in Europe so both they and Scottish-Americans probably have a leg-up in terms of branding. Red and white are very popular and since yarn is white…would be easy for new brands to afford. Same: white and blue. Or gold. Someone can probably pull up a list of American sports teams, particularly football since it’s in the winter. NC State. UNC. Duke. They’re often only a couple of colors so not hard if pre-loaded. Very ecofashion. You could see some fashion students really making a go of it for their new company since you can pick up vintage knitting machines pretty cheap on eBay. If you're at a textile or fashion college, there's probably a handful sitting around in storage so it wouldn't even cost that.

Lions brand yarn store tops the list of plays expect to see AI dyed-to-order yarn first, but there’s been MANY MANY brands over the years that have used weavers to make cool knit store displays. The advantage for AI color dying is that you could merge a counting function since each stitch is one BIT so there’s no trouble doing really fun prints. And small shops would save lots of money. High-end yarn can be very expensive and has a limited color supply. Imagine how much easier doing inventory would be. The gimmick is going to be someone who takes the digital printer and ties it to yarn shops or knit-on-demand robot vending machines to make simple scarves for winter tourists, but the rich will probably design something more…complicated than that? Just look at all those period BBC dramas of Scottish sailors in knit everything. You can see some NYC theater designers really getting into the act. We all remember those 80s themed ugly sweater parties too. Well, back to baking.
