Hello everyone :D

I'm making a set of cabled armwarmers in Slytherin colours right now. After that, I'll probably start making Jayne hats until I run out of friends to give them to.

I've never done cables, but I definitely am going to figure out how to do it soon. Woo!

LOL your icon.

hahahaha omg icon!!!!

I'll be doing a couple of Jayne hats for friends for the holidays. :)

I desperately want to make this, but with more of a cavalier look. I haven't found the right color yet though! But I have already gotten the perfect plume! (At a Michael's, no less! Check out the dried flower/grapevine aisles. There are all sorts of neat feathers there. At least, there are in my store.)

[ack_attack]

LOL oh my god that hat rules. What color do you want to make it in?

[emame]

A medium-to-dark shade of emerald. My birthstone and my favorite color. :)

Knitpicks has a good felting yarn in emerald over here if you haven't seen it yet :D

I have some Weasley Twin Hats to make up for friends (now that the pattern is all done, yaaay) and for etsy, and Jayne hats for same.

More fun though, I've been eyeing the red shawl Saffron wears and pondering making that, patterning it if necessary. I haven't found any patterns yet, but also haven't hunted real hard. ;)

I suspect I'm going to get sucked into the land of Christmas and wedding presents (darn those December weddings) and birthday presents (darn those December babies) though, so the shawl might end up waiting until January.

Did you make the pattern for the Weasley hats?? You should totally post it. i would love to make one of those!

Haha yeah I keep thinking about Christmasland and how I should probably do something about it soon...

There's a link to the pdf on that page, too. It's a very rambly post, but the pdf is more coherent, I think. (I hope!)

There's another one up on the weasley sweaters community that djinni posted as well -- although we patterned them pretty separately, they're veryvery similar. :)

I'm actually thinking ahead to the whole Christmas thing this year... and taking on waaay too many projects. O:) but it's all good, most of my family has winter birthdays, so what doesn't get done for Christmas can be a February or March birthday present!

Would you mind if I added that link to the Master List for the comm? And I'll go and find djinnj's too haha.

One of my plans is to make these fingerless gloves from Knitty: http://knitty.com/ISSUEsummer06/PATTknucks.html

And made them into Blues Brothers gloves by embroidering "ELWO" "OD" across the knuckles, like Dan Ackroyd's knuckle tattoos in the movie.

[ack_attack]

Haha that is awesome! I was thinking of making them with the FATE/LATE things from Lost.

[bluekitsune]

LOL now I want to make an illusion scarf with disappearing-reappearing 4 8 15 16 23 42! =D

[ack_attack]

OH NO YOU DI'INT.

That is a brilliant idea. We must make it happen. Lost knitting projects are hard to come by haha.
