the Potter projects coming soon as well as a knitalong to gear up for

Yup! I've called my local knitting/yarn/needlecraft store (Needlecraft
cottage: San Diego, CA) and they've placed a big order for this one. :)

I love knitting, I love the knitting in the books and films, I have wondered
about a lot of the projects described in the books, too.

I'd like to make a Weasley Sweater for all my friends and there are tons of
sites out there that have "guessed-at" patterns for things like: Ron's
Animal Cracker Hat (from PoA film) and Hermione's red mittens with a
beautiful cable & bobble pattern on the back of the hands... (same movie).
Ron had a rockin'  black & grey hat in GoF. Any hoo... I'd love to sit down
some day and make a few patterns based on the books. ;)
