just can't get enough

Got my yarn, got my air conditioner, and I'm back in the scarf business! Can you tell what I was watching last night while knitting? Here's a close-up. Yes, it's Prisoner of Azkaban. Can I help it if it keeps coming on tv?

At the end of the movie and the night, I was up to my armpits in Harry Potter!

The scarf is looking fantastic! So how many times have you watched The Prisoner of Azkaban? I'll admit I'm probably somewhere in the 50's. I love the Harry Potter movies so much that it lives permanently in the DVD player. Maybe someday one of my kids will be interested in a HPScarf. It sure is looking great!

I was watching it last night also. I was thinking how I have to start working on my Potter scarf so I can give it to my friend before November so she can wear it to the new movie.

Gotta love HP! I have done two repeats of the pattern but had to put it away for a few weeks to finish up some stuff for a wedding... Yours is looking incredible!

Mine is coming along too...and it is much more fun knitting miles and miles (literally!) of stockinette while watching Harry and Ron!! Yours looks great!

Wow, 351 people for the sock exchange! Am I stupid, or does that mean one person has to make two pairs (because there's an odd number of participants)?

Love the camera angle. Pretty polished toes!

What could be better than watching HP and knitting a scarf?!!! It looks wonderful...my son requested one to go along w/ his HP Halloween costume so just need some yarn to complete the task. Thanks again for starting sockpal 2...can't wait to try a second pair!

I am making the same very warm and long scarf that goes on forever. I am at stripe 7. However, we live in Florida, it's for my 16 year old, and he's not sure when he'll ever wear it but as a Harry Potter fan he HAD to have it!
