CLOSED: Harry Potter Craftalong - Ostara 2021

I kind of wandered off into the woods in a feral funk to commune with my inner goblin for April and somehow missed all the fun of the Weasley Wizarding Wheezes and the triumphant return of @Noodle (a belated welcome to Hufflpepuff!) but I am back. The Hufflepuff Spreadsheet has been updated, and I would like to announce @Whistlefish as the well deserved winner of the Hufflepuff Easter Egg Hunt. You can see her awesome little bunny painting here: [link].

Project Name: Orange Chickies Pukifee Doll Dress
Description: My grandmother used to sing Chickery Chick all the time, and I could not get it out of my head as I was sewing dresses with this fabric.

Project: baby sweater
This was also marled from yarn ends left over from other projects
It has a button flap in the back so that baby can get his head into it!

Iā€™d like to propose an advance studies projectā€¦
(And I guess officially abandon the one I currently have listed as I canā€™t even remember what it was!!)

ADVANCED STUDIES PROPOSAL ~
Project Name: birthday cake cardigan
House: Hufflepuff
Brief Description
Iā€™m gonna knit myself a cardigan. Iā€™m an adult, and a biggish one at that, so itā€™ll take a while - usually a few months. Iā€™m gonna use cupcake colours and lice stitch so itā€™ll look like itā€™s covered in sprinkles,
I went and picked out my yarn today and OMG itā€™s so floofy! Iā€™m excited to start
