Hi everyone,
I've added a page to my site. I'm hosting it for a friend since I already have an account and know a little bit about web page building. These were designed for another friend, a big Harry Potter fan, who was tragically killed in an auto accident, so she never got the finished items, and the patterns are being offered for free in memory of her generous spirit.
The pattern is for an ISM or USM knitting machine and gives instructions on how to make a hat either plain with simple shaping that takes an hour to knit and finish (I tested it and made a plain hat with the simple shaping and completely finished mine in only 50 minutes), or you can do more complicated shaping in 1 color, or you can make a hat with stripes that look like the Harry Potter Prisoner Of Azkaban and Goblet Of Fire stripes on their scarves. Also available is a scarf pattern with Potter Azkaban/Goblet like stripes done in Red Heart worsted weight that is approximately 6 inches wide when folded and about 6.5 feet long before fringing.
There are no pictures available of the scarf yet, but there are pictures of a Gryffindor colored hat with complex shaping, and a 1 color simply shaped hat knit for the troops in green camo. They are resized for the page view, but follow the instructions on my page for how to view them full size to see the differences in shaping at the top.
