Starknuts July Free Pattern Challenge 2009

Temperatures are reaching 105-110 degrees F in Oklahoma. But they're releasing Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince in theatres so what do you wear? Flipflops. comfortable and cool. But plain flipflops just don't have pizzazz. What's a girl to do?

Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for another episode of "Pimp My Flipflops". In today's show, we turn a pair of plain black flipflops into Huzzah Hufflepuff Flipflops using this simple and quick pattern found here, courtesy of Lion Brand Yarn.

Pattern can be found here



> Salazar Slytherin's Locket] was originally owned by Salazar Slytherin and became an heirloom of his family. It was a locket of heavy gold with a serpentine S in glittery green stone inlay on the front. In 1997, Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter ventured to the seaside cave where Voldemort had hidden his locket. They were fairly certain that a Horcrux was hidden in the cave. Through great personal injury, Dumbledore successfully retrieved the fake locket Black and Kreacher had left.

Original Pattern and can be found here

Dragonsinger of Hufflepuff with her completed assignment.

When visiting Diagon Alley, one of my favorite places to stop in is Fabulous Starknuts & Knits

Starknuts is conveniently located in Diagon Alley and open to all Floo Networks with a sizeable fire place. Upstairs from the coffee shop is the Yarn shop for all your knitting and crocheting needs.

They use a special charm so that your beverage remains at your preferred temperature for as long as you have it. We offer a variety of flavors and drinks, both hot and cold.

Was by there just today and picked up some tea for my tealeaf reading. They have the most wonderfuly charmed teabags that allow the leaves to sift out so that they are in your cup for reading after finishing your tea.

Welcome to my world. I am Rowan Dragonsinger and usually you can find me in the company of my familiar, Lady Macbeth, a small blue fire lizard who's size belies her spunk and attitude! When not teaching or studying my favorite subject, Ancient Runes, I can be found crocheting or crafting in other ways either at home, with friends at their weyrs or at Starknuts at my usual table in the corner enjoying a latte or chai tea! Won't you join me?
