Mr. Butters new mug shot

I am on hold posting a lot of photos on Ravelry because I used up my monthly alotment of photos is used up on Flickr. Here is a new photo of Mr. Butters. The other just does not show his scholarly side.

From another post:

Mr. Butters the Office Monster is always so dapper in his bowtie. He diligently works on Reference questions to help the students.

In his spare time he likes to sort his bowties by the color wheel, read Science Fiction, and watch swamp monster movies.

His true ambition in life is to prove the *Big Foot is real.

*Also known by the Fouke Monster, Skunk Monster, etc.

Danger Crafts for the pattern. Mrs. Danger is a genius.

Harry Potter Anagram

Pandora Phelps's

Let the anagram solving begin!

In the second volume of the HP books by JK Rowling, The (#1)Chamber of Secrets, we continue to learn the incredible adventures of Hogwarts student (#2) Harry Potter and his friends (#3) Ron Weasely and (#4) Hermione Granger. Belonging to the house of (#5) Gryffindor, they attend Defense Against the (#6) Dark Arts taught by Wizarding celebrity (#7) Gilderoy Lockhart, a none-too-bright fellow who cannot even handle pixies!
In The (#8) Chamber of Secrets, we also meet Dobby a (#9)House Elf for the first time. Determined Dobby seeks to sabotage the return of (#10) Harry Potter to Hogwarts and is pretty persistent but is unsuccessful. After a few weeks at school, the deceased Ravenclaw student who haunts the girls lavatory, also known as (#11) Moaning Myrtle, shows (#12) Harry Potter and (#13) Ron Weasely an old empty diary that dropped through her ghostly form out of thin air!

Many nifty things continue to happen for the next several months… we won’t go into all the juicy details right now… however, the ending is prime reading indeed!! (#14) Harry Potter finally kills Tom Riddle’s (a.k.a #15 Voldemort) sneaky diary (which we now know is a #16 horcrux) and saves the sister of (#17) Ron Weasely, (#18) Ginny!!!
Oh! Of course, we must mention that the thickheaded (#19) Gilderoy Lockhart unintentionally erased his own memory, so he won’t be back for book three, The (#20)Prisoner of Azkaban…

Hermione's Crafty Fire

Remember how Hermione would conjure up a blue flame and store it into a jar to warm the trio's hands in between classes? Well, this is my knitted version in honor of HSKS8 Summer Camp!

The Purple People Eater’s favorite past time is watching TV. His favorite shows are about ghosts and hauntings. One day he plans to join a ghost hunting team to research the battlefields of Gettysburg. He is very interested in battle history.
When he isn’t watching TV he is working in his cactus garden.
His friends call him PE for short.

This was my first Magic Loop project. I don't think I am doing it completely correct, but oh well. The fuzzy yarn really worked against me. I remember why I hate that kind of yarn with a passion.

Department of Mysteries

I went to Hobby Lobby this past weekend to pick up some stuff for HSKS 8 and found unpainted doors. They were called Fairy Doors, but this one looks for like a castle. I had to have it + it was 40% off.

I am pretty pleased with the outcome. I have about 3 layers of paint on the door + glossy gel medium. The hinges have about 4-5 layers and glossy gel medium. Adding the medium to the hinges really made them have a real quality.

I called it the Department of Mysteries, but I have had people say door to Fluffy on the 3rd floor and door to Room of Requirments. It is left to be pondered for others.

I made seven hats for Warm Woolies. I used a pattern for 2 of them and winged the other 5. The cirular flat one is a cute beret like hat. All of the blue colored one are 100% Alpaca and the green is 80% Alpaca, 20% Silk.

Hope fully I can knocked out a few set of mittens too.

I want, I want, I want!

I want these patterns so bad I can taste them. (ooo, yum.) I have to check to see if I have 44 dollars first. I am going to buy these....gee, I don't know if I can wait.

Hours later- I bought them, I bought them!! I am too excited! Shh don't tell my hubby how much they cost.
