Harry Potter Knitters Update
New knitters!
Stacey of sheep in the city, a fellow Salt Peanuts knitter, is going with her LYS to the Brown Sheep factory/mill and will buy her Nature Spun for a Gryffindor scarf there! Woo hoo!
Kim of coolwalkingsmoothtalking was taught by her grandmother to knit many years ago and picked up her needles for the first time in years to knit a Gryffindor scarf for herself! Her niece is keen on a Ravenclaw one. This is her first foray into circular knitting. Woo hoo!
Rani from Boston, MA is knitting a her nephew a Gryffindor scarf. She wants to let everyone know "at Patch Palace you can get mini patches for each house or even the Hogwarts patch to put on the scarf. I am awaiting my patch so once I get it I will email again and let you know about the quality of the patch. Be aware though that you have to order 2 or more patches to qualify for free shipping and there is no way to add in shipping at checkout, so read carefully, also you have to scroll down a bit to see the patches, don't click on those links! The people I dealt with seemed very nice though when I only ordered one patch."
A few updates:
I added Kari's link to her website. Very cool! She's got a little more than a foot so far and has worked through two repetitions of the trapped bar pattern. She's using US8 for the new scarf design (she used US7s for her old design scarf).
Check out MA's 'hat'. That makes me want to break out the leftover yarn and make one for myself.
