365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.

Set And Match
Day 124: As much as I love making socks, they do occasionally get boring, and in any event, I think every other person who works at Mount Rainier National Park has at least one pair of them by now (or at least it feels like it). After creating the cloche pattern for my "brain" hat, it occurred to me that I could go in a different direction for this year's silent auction contributions: a hat and mittens set! I knocked this one off in two and a half days, added the leaves as an afterthought. I'll make some socks as well, but this is a pleasant diversion.
