Makes no reference to ME or CFS but includes the following:

"It said all available data from high-income countries gave a consistent message: 'persistent post-infection symptoms are not only a health challenge but also a structural brake on economic output.'”

Back on the feather phase of the project. I’ve got python driving an old silhouette cutter to make the feathers.

#makeShitMonday, #crochet edition, in which I finally finish one of my WIPs! 🎉

I stalled out on the hat for my BIL trying to figure out how to attach it to the underlying wool beanie - the amount of expansion required to get to the dimensions of his ginormous head meant that just sewing it with regular thread wouldn't stretch enough. I tried a couple different approaches unsuccessfully, and then complained about it to my sister... Who sent me some thread-gauge super-stretchy elastic string she happened to have, and it worked really well!

So I pinned the daylights out of it finally got it all stitched together with enough stretch. Unfortunately the elastic was "clear" - more like white - and while I mostly managed to bury it in the crochet stitches, it showed through on the outside in a couple of spots... So I touched it up with a blue Sharpie. 😇 (I didn't sharpie it on the inside, though, because I didn't want the marker running off and leaving little black marks on his forehead.)

Feels so good to finally have this done and off to its intended recipient... I hope he enjoys wearing it as much as I've enjoyed making it! 🥰
