And now as for how Bohus Dean Cap, part of the Ravelympics2008 Hat Dash, is coming along as of a few minutes ago:

I am really enjoying watching this hat take shape. (Oh all right, 'enjoying' is incorrect when within a few stitches I am spirited into another time and place.) It isn't the fastest knitting, what with the color changes (4 in one row so far is the most to this point) and with the 'erratic' knit/purl combinations. It's not erratic, just seems so when being used to other textured patterns. This purling emphasizes the colorwork, creating an intriguing technical/mathematical configuration.

Here's a closeup of the preceding photo.
