Class or Challenge Title: Headmistress - Show Some Love Challenge
House: Slytherin
Project Name & Page Link: Crocheted Rainbow Hooded Sweatshirt
Brief Description: This sweater is for my sweet, little boy - one of the dearest people in my life. He just adores rainbows and things that are cozy and cuddly. For his birthday, I wanted to show him how much I love him…a sweater in fingering weight yarn is a decent start. :wink:

@plaidpineapple, I was just going to Hermione’s Homework Planner, and noticed that someone has been recording their progress on the Master Sheet. I believe, based on the comments written in Advanced Studies (being listed as a collared shirt), that these are your notes. Please be sure to record on YOUR sheet of the Homework Planner. It’s the one labeled as plaidpineapple along the bottom of the spreadsheet. I’ll give you a day or so before I erase the notes made in the Master Sheet so you can copy them over. Thank you! :slightly_smiling_face:

No worries, it happens. I just didn’t want you to lose your notes because I deleted them from the Master without telling you.

Tendstowardchaos, that hoodie is fabulous.

~ ADVANCED STUDIES PROPOSAL ~
Project Name: Wool Coat
House: Hufflepuff
Brief Description: I have been wanting to make a wool coat/jacket for a while but kept holding out for the perfect green wool. Alas, it seems to not exist. But I found a burgundy runner-up and decided to give it a go. It is a pricey fabric so I will need to do some prefitting and alterations in hopes of not wasting any of the fabric. My goal is to have it done in a few months, but I also know I tend to take a lot longer on my big projects than I plan. Either way-I figure starting in Feb it shoud be ready to wear next winter :wink:

Thanks :two_hearts:

Welcome @melg78

@noodle that picture frame is awesome and I’m so happy to see your place come together

@skrutt I’m always in awe of anyone who can knit socks!

@tendstowardschaos I love that knitted sweater. The colours are such fun

Advanced studies proposal
House Ravenclaw
Project. Now that I’ve finished two advanced studies projects this year, I’m on a roll. A slightly, very slightly, less ambitious one now.

Going to make an early 16 century Venetian outfit. Big dress, silly huge sleeves(which I adore!!) And probably a lined velvet cote to go on top.

I don’t think I posted pictures of me wearing my completed medieval russian garb. It won an garb competition at an event this weekend

Class or Challenge Title: Detention Challenge - Stash
House: Slytherin
Project Name & Page Link: Wish Me Chevrons Hat
Brief Description: My niece-in-law is having a birthday next month and I hadn’t made her a hat yet. So, this is the year she gets one! I used this pattern again - I really like it! Quick and cute. The yarn is from stash…a squishy hank of Malabrigo Rios that I bought over a year ago just because it was gorgeous (I still have one more in the same colorway).
