Last night I started on the Harry Potter House Scarves & Hats

The Scarf I started on is A Year 1-2 Ravenclaw in Royal Blue / Silver..

House Hats

I have been making lots of House Hats to sell at my craft fair, though I am not doing them in house colors, just any color yarn I have that looks good together, I will get some photo's up this week so you can all see how busy I have been :)

Who has seen the latest Harry Potter Movie?

I went to see it while I was in NZ, I enjoyed it, but I don't think it will ever be one of my fave Harry Potter Movies., But I will of course add it to my collection when it comes out on DVD! :)

Loved the new book!

I read the latest Harry Potter book, while I was away in Australia/NZ on holiday for two months! :) I could not hold off and wait to read it on my flight home! LOL!

Kyle's Quidditch Sweater

I arrived back homr yesterday from my two month holiday in Australia, my Mum made Kyle(my son) the Quidditch Sweater from the Charmed Knits Book. Shr dodn't do it in any Hogwarts House colors, but she made it in yarn that she already had, so it is the main color Brown, with the strip in a cream color. It looks GREAT and Kyle loves it. I will take photo's later in the week to share here.

OMG!

What is it with these harry Potter Groups?? I can't post that I have up-dated my blog on their groups yet I have a link to their groups on my blog??
These groups have too many STUPID RULES, for crying out loud! I am not a SPAMMER! Some group owners need to RELAX and stop thinking they RULE anything HARRY POTTER related...
Why can they just not let members chat with others and share their blog links or Harry Potter related sites so ALL CAN ENJOY?? Why all these YOU ARE SPAMMING ....... So I have removed that group from my links and left that group.. I see no point in being a member of something that feels they need to control that I don't talk about my own blog and Harry Potter projects!

I am taking my Charmed Knits Pattern Book.....

to Australia with me, so my Mum can make my son Kyle the Quidditch Sweater, and maybe a few pairs of socks, as I am not a sock knitter, I wish I could knit socks , I have tried but I always fail, I am hoping I can get my Mum to give me a few sock knitting lessons while I am there. :)

Elf Hat and a Matching Sweater

Check out the Elf Hat I made form the Charmed Knits Book.. and I then made a Sweater to match :)
The model is one of the children I look after (Josh) :)

My Charmed Knits Book arrived today!

I am soooooo happy!
So tonight I will start knitting the Elf Hat on page 110/111.

I just seen this on Amazon ....

Charmed Knits: Projects for Fans of Harry Potter by Alison Hansel (Paperback - May 7, 2007), so I guess Indigo books yelling me the release date of April 20th was not right ? :( Man I soooooo want my book, I hope I get it before I leave for my trip to Aussie on June 29th as I want to take it with me, as I know my mum will want to knit something for my son from it, for me to bring back with me.

How am I Not Going To Read My Harry Potter Book.....

When I get it July 21st? I want to keep it to read on my flight home from Australia back to Canada on August 24th...
I know what I am like I will want to start reading it as soon as I get it?
What am I going to do to stop myself??

Only a few more days...

until Charmed Knits is out, my bookstore that I ordered it from said it is not avaliable until April 20th, so I guess it will then take a few days until the store has it shipped out to them...

I wish they had Schools like Hogwarts...

I think I would like my son to go there.. man the school system here just does not seem to be helping him at all.!

I think it is time....

I re-read book # 6, before book # 7 comes out.
I will be in NZ when book # 7 comes out, so I already had my friend in NZ place an order for the book for me, so I can get it while I am there. :) My plan is to try really hard not to read the book until my flight home to Canada August 24th. (Not sure if I can keep to that plan though) LOL!

I am a HUGE Harry Potter Fan

I have read all the books, more than once. :)
I watch the movie's over and over again. :)
And now I have started to knit harry Potter related items. :)
I can't wait to get my copy of Charmed Knits, so I can start working my way through the book knitting . :)
