Ok. Ravelry has changed the lives of so many knitters, self included, in so many different ways. For instance, right now I am deep into the Harry Potter Knit/Crochet House Cup Challenge. Basically, you sign up before the start of term, get sorted into Houses, once classes are posted you pick projects and knit for points. There is so much more to it than that, but that's enough explanation to get by.
One of the things I love about the HPKCHC is the sense of community. You really get involved with the people in your house. Another thing I love about it is that it is getting me knitting. For once I will post pictures quickly, then give explanations later. It's very close to the kids' bedtime so I think pictures will do fo now.
This is from last term. It is the only project I managed to do. The assigment was to make a normal item in miniature.
This was this term's first assignment for Muggle Studies. We had to knit something that was inspired by a muggle tv show or movie. This is Jayne Cobb's hat from Firefly.
This is what I handed in today. For Defense Against the Dark Arts we were practicing the Protego charm and had to creat something that provides protection. This capelet sort of thing protects me from the spring chills that pop up sometimes unexpectedly.
More info and pix forthcoming!
