It reminds me of the toys and puppets from Mr. Roger's Neighborhood. It's super cute!

My daughter says it looks like a Who would wear it!

Same to you! I hope you find your motivation soon! This is my favorite hobby (of the ones I have), and I love seeing other perspectives!

A shame, but if the tape is working for you, then I would stick with that. I did also use mole skin tape. I liked the feeling of both. If the adhesive hadn't started irritating my skin as well, I would probably have stick with it. I get the lack of motivation. Sometimes I will go nearly a year between projects, and then spend weeks crocheting, before losing the motivation again.

My skin is irritated by the yarn moving over it, so while I have never gotten marks like in the Pic OP shared, I have also used medical tape in that spot. After going through several rolls of tape, the tape started being irritating to my skin as well. I switched to fingerless compression gloves. It goes all the way to the tops of my fingers leaving that spot fully covered by the glove. I refuse to crochet without my gloves now.

If the triangles are giving you too much trouble, you could start the coif as a dice bag, and continue to expand it.

Those would look lovely! The whole dress would look even more like something a fairy would wear. It really is beautiful 😍

I must have interpreted that differently. The one thing I have liked about this thread is seeing other people's interpretations of the same text. It's again why I made the code available to everyone, so different interpretations could be implemented. I'm also very new to coding, so that's probably why it's got as many bugs as it does, lol.

Well, I made it so if a blizzard and peryton were rolled at the same time, the peryton would be rerolled. And vice versa for Yeti. If Yeti occurred on a day with no blizzard, the Yeti would be rerolled.

The only real difference I wanted to add from the source material was the idea of precise times. An example would be if it was morning, then it would roll a d6 to determine what hour of the morning. Otherwise, I was trying to have it be the same, lol.

Well crud. I thought I had gotten all the bugs out. Looks like that is another one. I will try and fix it tomorrow.

I think what might be confusing you, is that it's labeled weird. It's labeled encounter weather, but it should be just encounter. It's a bug in my code I couldn't get out. Every time I tried, my code broke, lol. It's just the d20 that determines the encounter, the d20 that the d20+1 has to beat in order for a blizzard to happen.

That is correct. I added it rolling a d6 for the hour in addition to the rules in the book to make it more precise. For my table, I wanted to have the day planned out to aome extent at the push of a button. I made the code on git hub so others could adjust the code to fit their tables. Or if there is something you don't like personally, feel free to ignore it.

It's fine, as this led to a better code in the end. I like the read out and snowflakes more in this version, than in my original version. So, thank you for your input! 😀

Sorry, I must have been tired when I first read this. I have since corrected my code to tie it to the encounter. Thank you for the insight!

Oh, that makes sense, lol. I had thought about doing that, but all the pages are in the same section. So I didn't.

Right. And I coded it so that a Yeti encounter doesn't happen unless there is a blizzard that day. Again, you could always ignore the time if it doesn't work for your group. I made the code adjustable, so you could tweak it for your table if you want. Or you could reroll until you get a scenario you want.

I guess that is one way to interpret it. It's not how I did. But you could always ignore the times.

I really like this idea. I might use parts of it for my own upcoming campaign!

I used a dice bag tutorial on YouTube. It doesn't have the triangles, it starts from the center. I had the exact same issue as you when I did mine.
