I crocheted a book pouch for my paperbacks! I just need to resew the closure because I did an awful job with that, but I am very happy with the rest. Lined with strawberry fabric! 🍓

That way the corners of my paperbacks don't get damaged anymore when I throw them in my bag.

A very sweet little dragon finger puppet by Folkmanis Puppets, who was brought back from Canada by my friend Nate in November 2024. Their fabric is so soft and squishy and they're really fun to fidget with and hide in a pocket! Their pretty colours and tiny size make me think they must be a little fairy dragon.

The more I learn about Civil War politics, the more I'm convinced that Lincoln's most impressive and useful leadership trait was that he never let his pride get in the way of doing his job.

Other people in Lincoln's position would have come to Washington with something to prove. They'd have resented the insults and tried to disprove them. They'd have tried to seize power and credit, rejected help, spent a lot of time trying to reach a certain level of respect.

Lincoln's response to, "You're just a backwoods lawyer with no executive experience who makes too many dumb jokes," was pretty much always, "Yeah. And?" He had no interest in petty personal power plays. He had a country to run. There was a war on. It didn't matter what people thought of him so long as the job got done.

He was aware of his personal shortcomings and was always willing to accept advice and help from people who had more knowledge and experience in certain areas. He presided over a chaotic Cabinet full of abrasive personalities who thought they were better and smarter than him, but he kept working with them because they could get the job done. For example: Stanton was absolutely horrible to him when they were both working as lawyers. Just incredibly mean on a personal level. But when Lincoln needed someone to replace Cameron, he swallowed his pride and appointed Stanton as Secretary of War, where Stanton proceeded to be mean to everyone in the world, but he whipped that department into shape and kept it running efficiently through a very chaotic war. Pretty much no one except Lincoln would have been able to put up with that. He could put up with people who were personally difficult if they could do the job he needed them to do--which he was only able to do because his own ego didn't get in the way.

Lincoln's example is a prime demonstration of how humility isn't underrating yourself--it's being so secure in your own abilities and identity that you don't need to attack anyone or defend yourself to prove your worth. He knew his shortcomings, but he also knew his strengths. He was willing to give other people credit for successes and take blame upon himself for failures if it kept things running smoothly. He was secure enough in his own power that he could deal generously--but firmly--with people who tried to undermine him. In a city full of huge egos, in a profession that rewards puffed-up pride, that levelheaded humility is an extremely rare trait--which is what made it so impressive and effective.

A new book cozy for my mum!! Happy birthday! 🎂I made this other one for her for her last birthday and she's used it all year to keep her books from getting too bashed around in her bag. Time for an upgrade with an extra squishy stitch!

Yarn: I believe they are both from Fae Folk Fibres, though the colourways seem to be discontinued

Pattern: I used the basic 'crocodile stitch' though I fudged it a lot, not using any particular pattern
