And now for something completely different


Doesn't Aragorn look FABULOUS??? I promised Clare I would post some of my latest knitting projects so here they are. Aragorn is sporting a very trendy handbag w/ bamboo handles, which is also REVERSIBLE! Its, like, totally two bags in one! Looks HOT with a forest green coat, tunic, bow and quiver or bring it out for more casual, everyday use when not on an epic quest to save Middle Earth. And on below we have Ms. Marion sporting a very cute Jayne hat in purple. A Must Have this season especially for all the cold weather we've been having in California. Brrr.


Now I know you are all wondering, how can I look and be this awesome? Start knitting. Girls can make their own fashion statements. And for you guys, everyone knows "Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills." That's a fact. Knitting needles are a lot easier to use than nunchucks or bows yet can also be substituted as deadly weapons in a pinch (see Jules for tips).

Favorite knitting moment: All the Angus House Krew guys and gals (minus Tryste and Jules) sitting around knitting for Kristin's blanket, and someone commenting (Joe? Olley?) "So this is a Stich n Bitch...when are we going to start bitching?" Good times.

A sound proposition, but I believe I will stick with my bo staff skills. And my secret ninja moves from the government.

Are bo staff skills now part of the standard curriculum for library science?

I would like to properly attribute the source for how to use a knitting needle (or any other implement w/a pointy end) as a weapon: It was frisbee187 long, long ago, in the inscription he wrote when he bought me my v. own copy of "A Child's Machiavelli". Everyone should own that, btw.

Also, what a freaking cool bag! You should sell those thgs. You could work on them while you're in Chile and ship them back to Newport where they could be sold as "authentic Chilean trail bags knitted by the ancestors of whatever tribe lived there" for $800 each. I sense a real entrepreneurial opportunity here. Think it over. And if you need a middleman, well, you know my number...
