Day 1-- Sorting Hat ~ 24 rounds on sock A

Day 1

Sorting Hat --24 rounds on sock A

Prompt:

Welcome to Divination!

Our advent socks this year are focused on Divination. Each day will feature a method of divination and a chart that can be knit in colourwork or as a guernsey pattern (using purls instead of changing the colour).

Our first day is the Sorting Hat.  This is often the first form of divination a young witch or wizard encounters.  

Using your house colours, knit the chart FOUND HERE.  The rows outlined in pink are for those knitting 72 or more sts.


If you have trouble with your colourwork tension try knitting inside out.  This video shows you how it's done!

Day 1 - Arthur Weasley

  Day 1- Arthur Weasley  Arthur Weasley: The Muggle Enthusiast Arthur Weasley is a kind-hearted, well-meaning wizard, the father of seven children and husband to Molly Weasley. He is an employee of the Ministry of Magic, where he works in the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office. His most defining trait is his lifelong, passionate fascination with the non-magical world, or the "Muggle" world. Unlike many wizards who view Muggles and their inventions with contempt or ignorance, Arthur is genuinely curious and respectful of their ingenuity. His famous question, "Tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?" highlights his bewilderment and earnest desire to understand even the most simple, yet apparently functionless, Muggle items Prompt 24 Rounds on SOCK A Knit CHART on SOCK A. Using Yellow for the duck and the color of a car you love for the background.

Later, Harry and Cho Chang were alone under the mistletoe, and this time Harry brought up Nargles out of nervousness, but Cho laughed and they kissed.
