The fiber festival I'm going to next month is only enforcing masks for the few hours on Friday night that's the only time I can go.

Still, I'm super excited to even have that.

However because of that I am researching all the vendors beforehand to see who might have yarn for the Joni top I want to make next.

With limited time I want to be prepared and know who is priority to check out!

I picked up some lighter carders at a #FIBERFestival a couple months ago and tried it out with some #alpaca. I have so. Much. Alpaca. I'm still not 100% satisfied, but they're a lot easier to use than my first pair.

It's always sunny somewhere!

As announced this morning during #MozFest, the #SolarProtocol project has received the Mozilla Creative Media Award. Originally an #Eyebeam rapid response fellowship project, Solar Protocol is an experiment between a network of DIY solar web servers around the world. solarprotocol.net page requests are sent to whichever server is enjoying the most sunlight at the time. Internet dictated by the natural intelligence of the sun.

The funding will be used to improve documentation, expand capacity to educate stewards on maintaining their servers, develop more projects on the network, and more. As one of the youngest stewards, I'm excited to work on making the documentation more accessible to a range of skillsets.
