Class or Challenge Title: House Pride Challenge
SPEW or LC Contest: Inspired-Along challenge 2022
House: Slytherin
Project Name & Page Link: Slytherin Handspun Yarn
Brief Description: This luscious 3-ply yarn is a wool/silk blend from Paradise fibers in colorway ‘Slathersin.’ They can’t use the actual HP House names, but we know what they mean. The roving is a blend of several shades of green, gray, black and bright-white silk. I spun this semi-worsted to blend the colors, but globs of silk find their way through to create some contrast to the darker greens and grays. This picture was taken prior to washing, so it will fluff up a bit and even out.

Project Name & Page Link: Small crocodile
Brief Description: This is a small crocodile knitted on 3 double pointed needles, which creates a triangle when knitting. This was a gift for my brother who is in the hospital at the moment, for his mental health. And he collects crocodiles/alligators, has done so since a kid, so I thought that he needed a friend when staying there.

Class or Challenge Title: Headmistress - May
House: Gryffindor!
Project Name & Page Link: Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Lactation Cookies
Brief Description: Something for a new mom… me! It seems I’m not making nearly enough breast milk, so I’ve been working with a lactation consultant on increasing my supply. As a ‘it might help, it might not, but it certainly can’t hurt’ move, I made these lactation cookies. They are packed with oats, brewer’s yeast, and flaxseed. I made the recipe nearly exactly as written, but I did replace half the all purpose flour with almond flour, replaced 1/4 of the butter with coconut oil, and the water with cashew milk. They are seriously delicious, and both my husband and in-laws can’t stop eating them, so even though it made a HUGE batch, I’ll be making more soon.

Class or Challenge Title: History of Magic
House: Gryffindor!
Project Name & Page Link: Sunshine & Rainbows Nursery
Brief Description: I thought I had posted this here in the HPC, but I just realized that in the lead up to Ada’s arrive, I actually hadn’t! I certainly had moments when I wasn’t sure it would ever be done, or at least ever be done in time. I’m so glad we managed to finish it for her. Sorry for the repetition, for all those who saw it before in its own project post.
