My poor mother has been waiting about 2 years for her Griffindor Scarf – I hope to have it ready for her by the time the 5th Harry movie comes out this November. But until then, she shall have this beret to keep her happy.

I found this pattern to be terrible confusing ONLY because important information was spread all over the place. I didn’t enjoy that. I also didn’t really enjoy using this FINE yarn- which is the one and only Red Heart. But it got the job done, and hopefully I’ll have enough of it left over to complete her desired scarf.

I have a hard time with these type hats, but I think she looks rather cute. She wore it to the Christmas gathering that we had with my in-laws (how weird does THAT sound) and looked rather sassy if I do say so myself.

(AND in case you’ve noticed something different about THIS mosaic, my wonderful husband has turned me on to the mosaic-wonderland that is Picasa. )
