"John Carter"

Last night, I had the opportunity to attend an early presentation of "John Carter" courtesy of The Los Angeles Times Hero Complex and Disney Studios. It was AWESOME! 

I really enjoyed the story, the casting was perfect and the cinematography is excellent. I feel it is one of the best movies I have seen in a very long time. It had just the right balance of drama, action, comedy and romance.  I am certain I will go see it again when it is released in the theatres and I would like to recommend my readers go watch it.

BRIGHT yarn

At 50 grams and 210 meters, there isn't enough to make a pair of socks for myself.  So, this begs the question: shall I make a beanie, or shall I make fingerless mitts?

Valentine's Day beanie

Today is Valentine's Day so I finished my Big Button Hat designed by Amy Duvendack (Bad Amy Knits). It's really getting too warm to wear beanies and scarves in SoCal, except at night.

New beanie

This was made with Lion Brand "Amazing" yarn and a pattern from Ravelry.com. I'm considering making very short fingerless mitts with the left over yarn.
