Hogwarts Sock Swap Two!

Petunia Quafflepuncher, the amazing second-year Ravenclaw totally rocks. There was just so much amazingness in this package that it exploded everywhere (and the bars of chocolate quickly were confiscated... I will have to see if I can snag any of them before they are gone).

The yummy Professor Snape as an amazing polaroid transfer card (which I do believe was made by her).

A gorgeous hand-decorated hollow book, which revealed the following:

An adorable little sock bookmark and a beautiful pouch that contained the following:

OMG aren't those amazing? Look at that gorgeous beading. Wow. I have to pause for a second to mention that there are no photos of them being worn. As positively gorgeous as these socks are, I cannot get them over my heels. *cry* I still absolutely love them, though and will figure out some way for them to be worn.

She also made this gorgeous bag. It's beautiful. I love the fabrics she used.

Last, though certainly not least, two beautiful skeins of yarn from Wooly Treasures... one is a merino/bamboo/nylon blend, the other is merino/tencel. They are both gorgeous, I love the richness of these colors and cannot wait to make myself some socks with them.

Petunia darling, thank you so, so much. Please don't feel bad about the socks not fitting, I know my feet and ankles are horrible and it is absolutely not your fault. I love the socks anyway and am amazed at how much work you put into this package.

Alas! I am so very sorry the socks don't fit :( In retrospect that heel does seem a bit tighter than the normal stockinette heel flap. I flew too high on this one.

I'm glad you liked the rest though and do try to get some chocolate for yourself!

Yes, the card was made by me. Slightly embarrassed that I actually own a Prof. Snape slide with which to make Polaroid transfers, but it's come in very handy. Heh.
