Do not disturb

So beside having issues with blogger last weekend I am sick and have been in the infirmary keeping Madam Pomfrey very busy. After not being about to knit for about a week due to my ailment, I did manage to finish Bella's socks, so not I just need to wash and block them as well as the final touches on her package. I have leave from school this (Canadian long) weekend so I can go visit relatives and stay at our cabin on Galiano Island, BC for some much needed r&r and I hope to be fully recovered by then.

I apologize Slytherins that I haven't gotten your quiz out and there is a lovely prize just sitting in my dorm room waiting for it's new owner. Once I get back from celebrating Thanksgiving, the quiz will be written and up. For all you Canadian students, have a wonderful Thanksgiving, salute!

Finally some progress

So there has been some progress with Bella's sock and I haven't frogged it for a while now! I hope I don't jinx myself. All that needs to be done are these socks and I hope to finish the first one with week and start the second after that. Things have been busy working on my double potions homework and some nasty ancient runes translations to do.

Slytherins there will be a house quiz coming up in the next week or so. I hope everyone is working hard on their pal's socks and kit.

Knit on,

Someone hexed blogger

So I had a draft of the post I wanted to write and I went back today to finish and post it; however it is gone. Lost in the internets like it never existed. Sigh it's been a long week. Bella's socks aren't going as well as I hoped once again the sock in progress has turned back into a ball'o'yarn. I'm going to try again once the common room is quiet and I'm not so tired. I have some much essays to do that the parchment is piled so high it almost reaches the top of my canopy when sitting on my desk! Well it's off to bed for me it's been a long day with Quidditch practice and a Hogsmeade trip and I have to spend all day tomorrow finishing my homework *sigh*

What a slow owl!!

Well the owl with Bella's yarn finally got here! This owl makes the Weasley's old owl Errol look like a speed daemon. I can finally swatch for Bella's socks, now I just need to find the perfect pattern. :: does a happy dance::

Slytherins I hope that all goes well with your knitting charms or those who prefer to have their house elves do their knitting you haven't had any issues with Dobby or Hermione trying to liberate your house elves. If so let me know I need some practice on my hexes ;-)

Knitting in the Dungeons

So like the Headmistress I've had my Meez for a while too here she is in her knitting glory! I haven't had my bottom of my hair tinted green before well my peacock blue did actually fade to a green but that was a long time ago. Think I might grow out my hair a bit again and do this for the Half Blood Prince when it comes out in July (meh, still not happy about the delay!) You migh not be able to notice my scarf is a snake!

Owl Troubles

I'm still awaiting my partner's yarn to start her socks. All the goodies and extras I ordered are here and there is just one more crafty thing besides the socks that I need to complete. What is a Hogwarts Sock Swap package without the socks!! I believe that the owl may have been owlnaped! I'm crossing my fingers that it will be here soon.
