Hogwarts Sock Swap Questions
1. What Hogwarts house have you been sorted into?
Slytherin
2. Shoe size?
Somewhere around a woman's US 8.5, UK 6, EU 39... you get the point.
3. Foot Length?
9.25" from toe to heel.
4. Foot Circumference?
9" at the ball of my foot, 10" where the foot meets the ankle, 10.25" ankle, and my calve muscles are growing again because they claim to be 16.75".
5. List your three favorite double-point needle brands, including size and length.
(noting here that this will be my first ever socks, so I've no experience with anything smaller than a US4 currently in DPNs)
a. Brittany Birch, US6, 7.5" long
b. Clover bamboo, US5, 7" long
c. and I have no third because I hate the plastic DPNs I have with a passion and all my others except for the Brittany US6's are Clover bamboo - I do rather like Boye's Balene II needles, though, and they do come in a DPN, so though I've never used them, they get my third spot.
6. Would you like to try a new brand needle? If so, which brand? Size? Length?
Well, there's the Boys Balene II's, or the KnitPicks DPNs, but I'd also really love to try some Inox needles, any length is fine, and I think I'd rather like a US3 or a US0 (mostly noting those two sizes because they are the empty gaps in my DPN collection and they want filled with sharp pointy goodness).
7. If you are a RAVENCLAW, do you prefer the colors in the film or the book? Do you have a strong preference?
Doesn't apply to me.
8. Are you willing to have an international Hogwarts Sock Pal?
Sure.
