We're getting on a train later this week to go on vacation. Dd is totally into Harry Potter right now, so I've been gathering items to give to her on the train. I knit this bag to put them in. She's going to lose her mind. :tongue_smilie:

That is gorgeous! Excellent job-- your daughter is sooo lucky!:hurray::hurray:

 

Ok. You've got to tell me-- how hard was it? Say, for someone who has been knitting for years, made hats, socks, sweaters, gloves, scarves, shawls, and designed her own sweater, but has never done colorwork. I have been eyeballing that on Ravelry for months now. I am currently knitting my HP fan a Griffindor House Scarf and hat, but I'd love to top it off with the bag.

 

Oh, and do you mind sharing your yarn and colorways? :D

 

Gorgeous!

First of all, thanks for all of the wonderful things you all have said.

It wasn't that hard, but I've done colorwork from about my 3rd knitting project, so....

I rushed through it a bit, so it's kind of puckered, but I know that she won't care. ;) I used Lion Brand Vanna's Choice in mustard and cranberry...which reminds me that I need to post it on my ravelry page.
