Hufflepuff

The Hufflepuff squares are finished.

I have not decided on a final layout for the whole afghan but here are some arrangements for your viewing pleasure :)

All Sevens

Zig Zag

Fields and Furrows

You can get about 7 squares out of one ball of each color(at least with the Encore I'm using); although the dark color runs out faster, I think I tapped into my second ball at the end of the 7th block. There is enough leftover for the border and a little something else :) I just LOVE the log cabin block--there are SO many possiblilies depending on how big you want your afghan to be. I'll show you more as I get more squares done.

On to Slytherin!

Oh, the pattern looks lovely. Almost makes me want to make one not in HP House colors, but colors of my own choosing. Very nice.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the blocks. They looks so good. I may have to make one myself out of my stash not HP colors of course (I'm trying to destash)! Its definitely an inspiration.

I love it! I think that I'm leaning towards the zig-zag as my favorite though. Go Kim!

I really love the zig-zags, they remind me of Harry's scar.

Very cool idea. I bet it's gonna look awesome!
Now I see more ways you can use the log cabin blocks.
Thanks.

I love the idea of the log cabin blanket! I don't knit but this has made me want to start. Can you give me the pattern or tell me where to get it from? My email is joanne@jthanson.co.uk

Thanks.

Stashalong--Sign ups end Jan.1

Image
Sign ups have ended. EDIT: Sign ups end January 1 at 5pm Mountain time. Anyone interested in using some of your stash in order to make room for some new spring stuff? Join me in a very informal knitalong. Here are the rules: (1) Must start and try to finish something from your stash yarn(I say "try" to finish because if you pick something huge like an afghan or sweater finishing in three months may not be realistic). (2) You have 3 months and during that time you cannot add to your stash in any way(things ordered before January 1 but not yet delivered do not count--hence the early warning--get it out of your systems, ladies). Of course realistically there is no way to police this, so the honor system is in place. (3) I am beginning on January 1, 2006 and ending March 31, 2006(if there is interest, I'd be glad to start another one after that). (4) Keep me posted on your progress and I will post it once a week--probably Mondays or Tuesdays. I've never attempted to s...

Memory Lane

 Came back…looking through old posts.  There are many times when I really miss blogging. Life has been super busy.  Work, family…pretty stressful. I still have delusions of grandeur that I will find time to get back to the things I love to do unfortunately for the last few years it has been a lot of HAVE to do versus WANT to do.
