Charmed Knits

Like so many people, I'm a fan of Harry Potter. I'm very much looking forward to seeing the Order of the Phoenix this weekend, and I recently finished re-listening to the first six books in preparation for the release of book seven. (I'm also geeked that we're having a couple of Wizard Rock bands play at the 'brary on the 21st!)

I was really excited when I saw Charmed Knits, which contains a wide variety of Harry Potter knitting patterns. The Weasley Sweater is just as I pictured them from the books. The Invisibility Shawl is really pretty and at O.W.L. level, should be very doable. The House Sweater is a classic v-neck with house color accents - a subtle way to show your HP pride. I'll definitely be making something from this book sooner or later.
