It has awesome patterns for scarves, gloves, and all kinds of Harry Potter related knits that are fun. (  )camarie | Feb 17, 2009 |   I bought this book after borrowing a copy from the library. It is full of great basic patterns and would be a great beginners book. I have been knitting for years but I have found it to be a useful resource for basic patterns I did not have copies of. I have made several items, check out the bookmark scarves, I made 20 of them for summer reading club prizes at the library. They have been very popular. (  )TheLibraryhag | Aug 4, 2007 | 1  If you like Harry Potter and you need a few good basic patterns to use this is a very affordable book to get. (  )sammimag | Jul 9, 2007 | This book has some lovely patterns for the Harry Potter devotee in your life. I am making the Mrs. Weasley Stitch Witchery Bag and having a great time with it. That pattern, and a few others, are worth checking out even if Harry Potter isn't really your thing. ( )verbafacio | Jul 1, 2007 | The patterns in this book are pretty simple. If you're an experienced knitter, you'll probably find you could knit most of them without a pattern. However, for newbies to the craft like me, who have children who adore Harry Potter, it's perfect. I can learn basic construction rules while making my kids something they'll really enjoy. And the recommended yarns are, for the most part, very reasonably priced. There are patterns for sweaters in children's and women's sizes, scarves, socks, hats, a cloak, a stuffed owl, a simple lace shawl, and a few other items. The only really complex pattern is a colorwork-intensive blanket. But even it wouldn't be difficult if you are used to intarsia.
