Prompt/Challenge Title: Privet Drive
Project Name & Page Link: Black/Grey Basket
Team: The Quibbler
Brief Description: Some of my socks were taking over the top of my dresser, so I made a basket to keep them in one spot. I based it on this pattern, but made it smaller and folded the sides over to make it sturdier. Not the most interesting project, but necessary!

I love your little basket! And may I say, what a good idea to have a sock basket on the dresser. My socks seem to gather there, too!

Great basket, @jellybean! My stray socks are currently occupying a cardboard box, but your basket is a far classier receptacle.
Homemade ice cream is such a treat! My DH was just saying the other day that he would love for me to make some again (we were cleaning out the pantry and relocated the ice cream maker). It looks really yummy, @endymion.

I’m slogging through a slow afternoon on the job wishing I was home working on my reading journal or continuing to shovel out tidy my craft space.

Made a pair of earrings for my adult son, and also mended one of his sweaters, but those were pretty quick projects, so they won’t count for points. Gathering supplies to do swap-related crafting this afternoon.

I think my 50 projects list will fit with this craftalong. I like how the prompts were crafted. I’ve read through the first post probably five times!
I’m not a big Harry Potter fan, but I enjoyed reading the books and watching the movies. Prisoner of Azkaban was my fav.
So… I think I’ll join?

Project Name & Page Link: A Hood for the Doggo
Team: Daily Prophet
Brief Description: It has been bitterly cold, and my sweet doggo doesn’t have the warmest of fur coats. He has extra coats, but nothing to protect his head and neck from the chill. Potty breaks are very quick these days. However, he was not at all pleased to have something over his ears. Working on a cowl, now, lol.

He let us put it on a few times, but he’s decided to be done with it (except as a toy). It didn’t help that DS1 was laughing hysterically when he took this picture.
