When my neighbor Lindsey was a teen working at Rock City Coffee Roasters, they introduced the Darkstar blend. I met Lindsey during the eclipse last year, and as our kids played and she brewed us amazing coffee, I wondered what clothing item could be named Darkstar that Lindsey would wear? So I brewed coffee, space, and some of the numbers I already worked out in the Half Moon Mitts (with an improved thumb) and these came out.
