Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw


Yarn: A japanese brand with a kitty on the label that i got in taiwan. 100% wool.
Skeins: 2, one brown, one blue... (112m 50g)
Needle: DPN 6 & 7.
Pattern: a free one from Charmed Knits.
CO: 6:00pm
BO: 12:30pm


Out of no where, I thought I'd cast on for the house beanies. Most likely because I wanted to decrease my stash... or maybe because I want to participate in the deathly hallows swap, but I don't think I have time to complete the swap.

I worked these in DPNs the whole way even though the pattern had called for circs. I think the circs are harder to work with because you have to get the circ length just correct... well I manage to fudge the DPNs to work even though the cast on was way too much for one single DPN.

I made the small size, although I elongated the length a little bit.. i think the next time, I'm going to bring the strip down a bit more, it sits too high on my head. I was afraid that it wasn't going to fit me...

dang it.. it's 1am already. i need sleep. goodnight!!
