I love the Bitch.

She's so cool--and the fact that she knits is purely a bonus. I recommend adding her to your newsreader. I was tempted to post a pointer yesterday to her post about Cecilia Fire Thunder establishing a family planning clinic on her reservation in South Dakota, but I was tongue-tied by my usual doubt that I could say anything that wasn't derivative and lame. If your interests extend to parenting, or the intellectual or political life of the country, or academia, or being female, she's worth a read.

My first Dulaan item of '06. A cloud hat, more or less. It's adult-size, however. It fits me.

I spent most of our rainy Sunday on the couch in my pajamas, finishing this. The yarn is the leftovers from the creamsicle sweater--Lion microfiber in mango, and Patons Diva. I actually had to find my swatch gauge and rip it to finish up; I thought surely I had enough mohair left for one hat. Again, attention to gauge might have helped. The whitish stripe is a bit of leftover Artfibers' Kyoto. I've got a bunch of bits of that from a big scarf I made, but I think I want to keep that for a scarf for myself--and I'm still trying to focus...

Stupid Kitty Tricks Um, sorry about the annoying sound on the clip below. There's a bit of static when I use QuickTime to play it, but something seems to have happened in the compression process. I am reviewing VideoEgg for my column, hence the dopey, low-res video of Orange Boy, who's been trying to prove lately that no, he's not slowing down, even if he is almost 16 and sleeps 20 hours a day. He makes those 4 hours count. I shot that video with a borrowed digital (still) camera, and while it looks rather grainy full-screen, it works perfectly for a small window in a Web page. I'm pretty enamored of the camera, too. It corrected for the incandescent light, and kept the weaselcat in focus, even though I was holding the camera with one hand and badgering him with the other. I would pretty much really love to keep that camera,...
