Harry Potter on the Brain

I've been working for a very long time making things to sell for my business, so I decided to endulge myself and work on something for me for a change! My loving husband gave me all six Harry Potter movies on BluRay for Christmas so I've been having a bit of a movie marathon. I even have the new movie "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" on my ipod! I had found a "charming" knitting book awhile back called Charmed Knits, Projects for Fans of Harry Potter by Alison Hansel.



It's a wonderful book for those who love Harry Potter. I've already made the Weasley sweater for myself and now I am working on a Gryffindor house scarf.



It's still a work in progress since I like to knit it while watching the movies. I have to remember to take the time to create for myself once in awhile instead of always trying to design the perfect yarn or fiber blend for my online store. (www.spumwovendesigns.com if you were wondering!) It's also equally important to showcase or wear your own creations out in the world for others to see, feel, and ask questions about. That's the only way to really spread the word about the fiber arts. So I am going to take my own advice and work on things for me this year!
