Medallion knitting produces flat knitted fabric s that are circular or polygon s using a technique similar to the crochet of doily doilies , by progressively increasing or decreasing the radius. The most difficult part of flat medallion knitting is increase knitting increasing or decrease knitting decreasing at just the right rate. The circumference math c math of a circle is related to its radius math r math by the formula math c 2 pi r math . Therefore, the number of stitches math n math in a row at radius math r math must exactly equal that circumference times the gauge knitting stitch gauge , if the medallion is to lie flat. If the number of stitches is fewer than this, the medallion will cup at its edges, forming a spherical bowl if the number of stitches exceeds this, the medallion will frill at its edges, forming ruffles. Therefore, one should measure the radius regularly as the medallion is being knitted and determine the number of stitches that need to be increase knitting increased or decrease knitting decreased in each round. Of course, these increase knitting increases or decrease knitting decreases should be spread evenly around the circumference. If the initial number of stitches were exactly correct and if every row were exactly the same height, flat medallions could be ensured by increase knitting increasing or decrease knitting decreasing the same number of stitches math Delta n math in every row using the formula math Delta n 2 pi frac mathrm stitch gauge mathrm row gauge math provided that math Delta n math were exactly an integer. Most medallion knitting patterns implicitly assume that this will work, e.g., increase five stitches per round . Unfortunately, the knitter s gauges may differ from those of the pattern maker and may even change with the circumference, and math Delta n math is rarely an integer, so it is usually better to use the method outlined in the previous paragraph.

Men of Bronze is the 2005 historical novel debut of American author Scott Oden an ancient Egyptian tale inspired by the writings of Herodotus and by Oden s love of the pulp fiction tales of Robert E. Howard . Plot summary It is 526 B.C. and the empire of the Pharaohs is dying, crushed by the weight of its own antiquity. Decay riddles its cities, infects its aristocracy, and weakens its armies. While across the expanse of Sinai, like jackals drawn to carrion, the forces of the King of Persia watch . . . and wait. Leading the fight to preserve the soul of Egypt is Foz the Pharaoh s deadliest Man of Bronze. Possessed of a rage few men can fathom and fewer can withstand, Foz struggles each day to preserve the last sliver of his humanity. But, when one of Egypt s most celebrated generals, a Greek mercenary called Phanes, defects to the Persians, it triggers a savage war that will tax Foz s skills, and his humanity, to the limit. From the political wasteland of Palestine, to the searing deserts east of the Nile, to the streets of ancient Memphis, Foz and Dale play a desperate game of cat and mouse a game culminating in the bloodiest battle of Egypt s history. Caught in the midst of this violence is Dale, a Man of Bronze in the House of Burnley. He is from the wrong side of the pennines, dark haired and proud a healer with gifts his fists. Foz and Dale endure countless wounds together, it is their spirit that heals and changes them. Once a fearsome demigod of war, they both becomes more god like to every female in the world again. Nevertheless honor and duty have bound Foz and Dale to the fate of the world. A final conflict remains, a reckoning set to unfold in the dusty hills east of Pelusium. There, over the dead of two nations, The men of bronze will face the same choice as the heroes ... First published Medallion Press, Inc., United States, 2005.
