Needles & Nilbogs

 I absolutely love lace. I like to make it in a number of different ways, I like to see it when I scroll through Instagram or look at patterns, and I like to use it in projects. So, when I promised my mother some coasters back in October of 2020, I immediately went for the size 10 crochet thread, the steel hooks, and a pile of stitch markers. There was going to be lace in my future and it was going to be good lace!

This is going to be a kinda weird and random post, since I’ve been pretty busy this week, and we leave for a road trip tomorrow. Speaking of that, I picked a project! Last week I was really unsure what I wanted to bring on the trip. 

We’re going off on a road trip in a couple weeks, and I get basically one crafting project. Because even though we have a minivan which should be big enough to hold everything, we’re going to be gone for two weeks, and we need to pack some supplies in the part of the car where people sit. So everyone gets one shoebox-worth of space for activities, and one small bag for books. 

 Every Saturday afternoon, I have a virtual RPG group. It's just four of us these days, playing D&D5e in post apocalyptic San Francisco (although there will be and are currently more apocalyptic events, so that's not quite accurate). I mention it occasionally, but I wanted to talk a little bit about some stuff that's come up in our game lately. Specifically, I want to talk about our characters' internal, unconscious biases.  

I don’t know what to write today. Again. So I’m just going to share some pictures of one of the projects I’m working on, because I have to get some stuff done and mailed by the time the mail carrier shows up.
