HPKCHC Arithmancy Assignment October 2009

Welcome to Arithmancy!

Please take out parchment and quills.

This month we will be learning the term: ”Binary”.

Binary means: composed of two parts or two pieces.

In Mathematics, a binary function, or function of two variables, is a function which takes two inputs.

For your assignment this month:

Knitters/ crochetters:

1. Two items that complement each other or make a set. For example, matching gloves and scarf. Or a scarf and a hat. (Note: a pair of gloves counts as just one item). Make them as a set. Please explain why you would wear them together. They don’t HAVE to be the same color but they have to match in some way. or

.

When one has two friends in the wizarding world with similiar tastes, to make something for one and not the other could result in problems......

....... especially when one is Narcissa Malfoy and the other works for the Ministry as an auror! So below is my solution, two sets of [Josephine Gauntlets](pattern), one in Narcissa's Slytherin Green and one in Auror Piper Poplartree's favorite color purple!

HaR History of Magic Part 1 - Quidditch Gauntlets

History of Magic
Professor Adais

Professor Binns has finally realized he is a ghost, and promptly decided he should retire to do all the things he never did when he was alive. So- it is my privilege to take over for him as the History of Magic professor. As such- I will focus on the APPLIED approach, as to not bore my students into a snoring stupor. :D

APPLIED History of Magic Syllabus

As I KNOW I’m not the only teacher giving homework- I have decided to approach HoM as a gradual course.

Each term, we will study ONE topic in depth. Students will have two projects (and one optional extra credit projects) to complete. Since Quidditch is so popular- the first term will be devoted to this popular subject.

Due dates and points:

* The first project is due by the end of class. It will be worth 10 points.

SHOULD you not be able to complete the projects by the end of class- you may complete them and turn them in before the end of the TERM for reduced points.

Project One: Quidditch Gauntlets
ANY gauntlet or fingerless mitten/gove pattern will do as long as it extends past your wrist. Also- if you want to tackle actual gloves- be my guest.

Quidditch guantlets:

Done in Slytherin green as a gift for my friend, Narcissa :D

HLBOE Swap Received!

Now without further ado, the awesome treasures sent to me by Lady Ferula the Forgetful (Staarkatt) who almost forgot when to stop -- oh and where she hid those lovely Hufflepuff fingerless mitts when she packed them! lol :D

There was also a lovely little dragon who sits on the top edge of my screen and a cute little Hufflepuff colors note pad and lovely stitch markers that accidently got left out of the photo but are no less loved than any of the package :) *hugs*

HaR DADA Part 1

Josephine Gauntlets


Skull (though not felted as I abhor what felting does to the stitches and won't do felting)

HPKCHC Potions September 2009

While I enjoy wearing sleeveless tops or dresses during the summer, fans and airconditioning can cause me to feel rather chilled when I am inside. Also, when riding in a muggle friend's auto, their air conditioning blows directly on my arms which causes discomfort and chills (thank Merlin we have climate spells to control room temperatures!)

To keep my arms warm, I crocheted these [Josephine Gauntlets](pattern)
