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

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!! :)
