Ice Planet: The Strangest Planet In The Universe movie

2015/10/14
Third event: Pentathletes build the body of their poncho.
starting at neckline, established pattern
watching
Ender’s Game

i was a little worried about striping yarn in the round but it looks pretty good
Ender’s Game is definately worth watching!

finished 1 sk at rnd 12 of st patt, looks pretty good.
this is a good striping yarn, it ends & then starts with the same color shade so it blends along nice.

watching Infini now - well, maybe later, it’s 4:30 am here

watched Infini - a little gory but it was an alright movie - kind of scary but interesting at the end

watching Debug movie - creepy creepy although i do crochet a lot faster when i watch this one

ended 2nd skein at rnd 22
now i’m watching Halo Nightfall movie, it’s pretty good so far

Fourth and Fifth events: Pentathletes complete their borders and weave in ends.

The pentathletes completing the course participate in the Pentathlon Parade of Ponchos.

working fringe

10-26-2015

WooHoo!

I’ve got the fringe and neck tie cord finished!

I used 2 lengths of 11 yds ea and crocheted a chain length for the neck tie cord instead of twining, ugh, i tried and it’s a horrible mess. The length wasn’t long enough either.

Now i only have left the cowl!! :)
