Lazy Sunday Afternoons

I love the serene Sunday afternoons that include naps and knitting and spending time with my sweetie. I am about 12" into the back of my slytherin sweater and so excited to be done with it so I can wear it to the chilly quidditch matches. It is in moss stitch so 109 stitches on size 7 needles in seed stitch, as you can imagine, is torture!

2-1-09

This has been the longest week.  I had classes all 5 days this week from 7 am to 5:30 pm.  the teachers are really working us over getting us ready for the NEWTS.  I am stressing more this year over potions than I ever have (and having more fun).  Professor Snape is even sexier than I remember him from last term!  I am excited about my friends all being back for the last term of our education here at Hogwarts.  

I am currently knitting the Lace Argyle hat from "Boutique Knits" and LOVING it!  I am making it for a friend of mine who attends Beauxbatons Academy.  Her birthday was in December and this is what she picked.  

Hope everyone is doing well, and leave me a note!
