I love the juxtaposition of Katrina Law in her Legend of the Seeker Mord'Sith outfit knitting.  The Mord'Sith a symbol for fear, torture, and callousness while knitting is generally a motherly symbol one of a tender, creative, and nurturing act.  It really makes me think of Cara from the book toward her last moments.

She can torture you into total submission and make a nice pair of booties to keep your feet warm while you run through the cold stone floors of the People Palace fetching her bath water.
