Craftiness

Spinning!!
I spun my June Pryce Fiber Arts merino roving in Equinox! (OMG guys, she's a geek! She has TARDIS Starry Night, Silver Surfer, and Jamie and Clare colorways!  I didn't realize that when I met her!)


Geekery
News:
Marvel has announced Phase 3 and OMG CAPTAIN MARVEL!!!
PAX East tickets are on sale!!! If you are in the New England area and like video games, tabletop games, any sort of games, or anything remotely geeky, check it out.  Its easily one of the best cons put on in this area.
TV:
In which I have opinions about Doctor Who, Agents of SHIELD, The Flash, Arrow, and Constantine.

Pull List
Last week:
Wayward #3
Gotham Academy #2 (this would be the one I baby-talked to)
This Week:
Batman #36
Batgirl #36
Captain Marvel #9
Hawkeye vs. Deadpool #2
Thor #2
Next Week:
Wonder Woman #36 (the new creative team starts with this issue, so it should be a good jumping on point)
Spider-Woman #1 (try to avoid picking up the Milo Minara cover, so we can prove a point to Marvel)

Chai Tea

Episode 5 - Holy Knitting Batman!


Segments include: Finished Objects, What's on my Needles, New to the Queue, Pretty, Craftiness, Geekery, Pull List, What am I drinking, Geekery: Part 2: Spoilers

This episode is much more knitting heavy than the past couple of episodes and a bit longer, I hope can keep my knitting mojo up this high in the future.  Also, I got a new mic so the sound quality is much better, however it picks up a lot of background noise (cars, my ceiling fan, and my neighbor's bird, etc.) so bear with me until I can work out those kinks.

Show notes will be up soon.  Enjoy!!
