Day 6 - Logarithmancy

Logarithmancy - 19 Rounds on sock B


The Muggles have a fancy Arithmancy formula. They call it logarithm. I have heard that some Muggle children (and adults for that matter) can struggle with simple Arithmancy let alone the confounded inverse of some rune that is attached to the numbers. Let's all clear some of the confusion, shall we? 


Logs come from trees. Trees have branches. Branches normally grow up to reach the sky. (We all learned this in first-year herbology.) Sometimes those branches grow down for a short period before they can find a clear way to reach the sky. Thus, log-a-rhythm was born. sigh If only the Muggle teachers could learn the proper vision of Arithmancy.


We are going with the Magical Log-a-rhythm to divine your colors today. Please look out your window. What do the branches of the trees look like? Are they full of leaves? If so you are very lucky to live in the southern hemisphere. Are the trees hibernating for the winter? Are you surrounded by evergreens? Choose one, or two if you are working colorwork, colors to use for today's segment. 


Here is what my front yard looks like today. You are welcome to use this if you are in an area that is filled with buildings instead of trees or perhaps you are not inspired by the trees in your yard.





For your segment today you can choose to use the CHART HERE as a textured segment or you can continue on with colorwork. If you choose texture you may wish to go down a needle size to keep a similar gauge. If you choose to continue with colorwork you will need to divine two colors.

Day 1 - Arthur 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.

Day 24 Mistletoe is an Ingredient in the Antidote to Most Poisons and the Forgetfulness Potion. Mistletoe is used as Christmas decoration and was part of the decorations in the Room of Requirement just before the Christmas holidays. Luna remarked that Nargles frequently infest mistletoe. 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.
