The Shields of Strength pendant off my EDC keyring, with 0.9mm cord in a Gaucho knot variation around the rim. Started with a 3 lead Turk's head knot, raised/expanded that, then worked in the Gaucho pattern so that it would be wide enough to use on the shield...

Paracord covered ball chain necklaces and some knot work. stormdrane.blogspot.com/2013/10/shields-of-strength.html
I tied this one while watching the Broncos/Cowboys game last night(good game), but didn't finish up with the planned Gaucho knot(s) to cover the ends of the knot where they meet over the ball chain clasp.
I covered the Shields of Strength pendant's ball chain with navy blue paracord(25 inches), then went over that with 0.9mm orange cord, starting with around 28 feet - being more than enough for a single pass of a long 4 bight Turk's head knot.
With the open pattern, it's hard to tighten it up over the paracord, so unless I anchor some of the crossings with needle/thread, or add more passes, it would be too easy to snag on something and pull the knot outta whack...
I do like the look, but will probably untie it and maybe try some hitching patterns... stormdrane.blogspot.com/2013/10/shields-of-strength.html

Not much has changed with my edc since my last 'pocket dump' photo back in April.
I made a quick run to Papa John's for a carryout order, using my 'points' for a free medium two-topping pizza, before the points were set to expire tomorrow.
Ma likes ham and pineapple on her pizza, so that's what I got for her, and I bought another with pepperoni and mushrooms for Pa and I.
We live much closer to this particular pizza shop since we moved last month, and it only took five minutes to drive there, but traffic stinks in this area, so it took a good twenty minutes to drive back home, even with it just being a warm 91° Saturday afternoon...
