About Lloyd Kahn

He got his start in publishing by working as the shelter editor of the Whole Earth Catalog with Stewart Brand in the late '60s. He has since authored six highly-graphic books on homemade building, all of which are interrelated.

One Response to Layering to Keep Warm

  1. Yes, good advice, Lloyd. I do this frequently, at our home. It got started, for me, more as a truce with hubby, who likes things much cooler than I. (sigh).

    as well, recently, i have discovered an electric “foot warmer” (heating pad sort with a pocket), and have found that handy. (under desk/end of bed/end of couch when i stretch out)… I actually prefer bare feet (but not the cold), so have the electric foot warmer is handy.
