Another movie review, and some knitting FO

This Friday I took Jasper to see Monster's University, so I thought I'd post a few brief points.

* Nathan Fillion as a frat boy was too funny!

* I liked that the message that you don't have to be popular, cool, or the usual definition of talented in order to be awesome. Mike, while not scary, brings out the best in Sully. Together, they are a team that accomplishes more than they ever could alone.

* The whole concept of door design was pretty funny, and the short at the beginning of the movie was really cute!

So, here is my updated summer movie ranking:

1. Star Trek Into Darkness

2. Iron Man 3 and Now You See Me

3. Man of Steel

4. Monster's University

A parade of finished knitting projects!

A cardigan out of the delightfully drapey but very splitty Lion Brand Microspun. Love the color!

The cowl is finished and blocked (despite the challenges in blocking a loop)--huzzah! Next time though, no nupps.

I made another little bag, but forgot to transfer the picture. Instead, here is my reward for surviving contract week with my dad--delicious yarn!

Now I'm starting to plan my trip knitting and reading...serious stuff man!
