Yes, Hayden

Hope has forsaken these lands :-). And I SO want to watch that again, but finding TV time without little eyes about is very difficult.

As I thought, yesterday afternoon was bad, and got worse throughout the evening. Taking that into consideration, I only have a couple more hours of any productive time whatsoever. Now I need to decide what to do with it.

A friend of Nate’s (and mine) emailed me yesterday asking if I’d make him a Harry Potter sweater. He is a tall, broad man that is larger than my husband, and I can’t imagine doing that much stockinette! We are in negotiations right now, and he’s thinking about knitting one for himself with my help. My question is this… I am not very familiar with all the yarns that are out there, Google didn’t avail much information yesterday, so I’m putting it to you. Is there a good, tweedy yarn out there that is a solid worsted, possibly even Aran weight, mixed blend yarn that would make a good Harry sweater? Do tell!

Also, I’ve been meaning to link Alison’s new Weasley Sweater Pattern, for those of you who have asked and possibly more of you who would be interested.

Well, I’d better get to it. Maybe I’ll do something with the crockpot for dinner again, and now that I’m accommodating my own meltdown, perhaps I’ll just resign myself to bed once lunch is over and get some knitting done!
