BIG NEWS!

I went to the store today... they hade a hole rack called "wile your waiting for Deathly Hallows". o.0
any how I got it for 16$ and its great! I love a bunch of the things in it.
though there are times when you can tell that they were just trying to fill space... like the "invisability shawl"... but most of them are really good. 3nodding
knittin mind, purling the senses... I can teach you how to crochet fame, felt glory, even put a cable in death.

I've heard of this book! XD I seriously would love a copy - I've never knit sweaters before, but I'd seriously try to make one of Mrs. Weasley's if I had the pattern for it. I also hope that it has patterns for some of Dobby's socks. mrgreen Does anybody know when the knitting book is coming out? (I already have my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pre-ordered, so no questions about that date from me).

Are the sweaters in the book only in kid sizes? I'll probably buy it regardless, but it'd be nice to know how much work I'm going to have to do to adjust the quidditch sweater (I want to make it!) for my 5'9 frame.

I got mine in the mail today. I'm really happy with the variety of patterns. It looks like all the sweater patterns are made for adults, but can be altered to fit children.
Only thing I'm slightly disappointed about is the sleeves of the Molly Weasley sweater. They don't look much like the movie. neutral I also bought the patterns for the Hermione Hogsmeade Hat/Mittens, as well as the Quidditch Socks, off of Atypically.Knit some time ago. sweatdrop

Could you give me a count on how many adult patterns there are and how many kid patterns? Its going to be a little while before i get to go out looking for it. thank you, a little quote of myown. there are 7 paterns for sweaters-things, and the only one in childrens only is the robe...and I don't really think that one would look good on a proper sized person any ways. most are adults only, and the weasly sweater go's from childrens small to adults XXL. as I said there are some stupid patterns in it... but there are some really good ones. this is coming from the guy who's about to go out to the fabric store so I can make myself and a friend hogworts robes for the midnight book release. off the top of my head there are about 7 or so socks, 5 or 6 hats, a couple mits and other things like that.

WOOT!
The book sounds perfect- I admit that I'm mostly excited about the Weasly sweater- I've been looking for a good pattern since I started knitting six years ago. (And my upcoming quidditch sweater of course...)

I admit, I'm not real keen on making it, so I'm just doing a flat scarf in 1x1 rib on size 11's.... and it'll be a whole lot shorter than it's supposed to be. ninja
