Halloween and Knitting  

Trick or Treating in my cousin’s neighborhood was Sunday afternoon and not on Halloween.  I was the treat distributor to answer the door when small children came--I was the only adult in the house not wearing some scary mask!  I knit during lulls between groups of ghosts, goblins, and cavemen arriving at the door.  (Caveman seemed to be a very popular costume this year!) 

There has been some question as to whether I am knitting the scarf I keep mentioning.  Here’s the evidence:

 I’m definitely not Mrs. Weasley.  I can not charm my needles like Mrs. Weasley does!  If I could, my Gryffindor House Scarf would be finished and not just half done.  (notice my wand next to me--useless object, unless used for it's actually purpose, knitting.) 

Will I finish before November 18^th?  Perhaps the question I should ask is whether I’ll have enough burgundy wool to finish?  I started the third of four skeins just after going over half way.  Having enough to fringe will be an issue!
