Three rows of tri color crochet spiral hexagons with different 3 color combinations laid out on a bed with a pink and white marbled bed spread with long yarn tails trailing down below each hexagon. Behind the spirals on the bed are multiple scientific text books that are used to help flatten the spirals.

A third row attached for #MSB2026! 18, 17, and 18. The separate rows are not attached to each other yet but I'll get there!

More grey than I had expected, less than I would have liked.

This has been a big learning experience, what works best, etc.

I haven't made the spiral for 3/22 yet, but suffice to say I felt the need to add a little room in my ranges. No day was that high last year until June. 💔

A simple spreadsheet with the months down the left column to label each row, and the headings "Mass Shootings," "Deaths," and "Injured" at the top to head each column. Data shows for January: 25 mass shootings, 32 deaths from mass shootings, and 81 injured from mass shootings. Data shows for February: 29 mass shootings, 38 deaths from mass shootings, and 96 injured from mass shootings.

Been meaning to do this when I finish each month. Remember, this doesn't even touch the scope of gun violence in the USA, this is only the data for mass shootings.

Ask yourself: how many mass shootings have you seen on national news?
