Was it just me or were the knits in this movie incredible? I want to make Hermione's V-Neck Gryffindor Hoodie.

I also like both Hermione's sweater here and Luna's as well.

Oh.my.goodness. Last night I went to see the new Harry Potter and it's the first time I saw an HP movie since i've been a knitter. I loved the knits, but it distracted me from the movie sometimes!!! lol During the scene where they formed Dumbledore's Army, everyone was wearing awesome Fair Isles: sweaters, hats, scarves, everything. It was so cool! I loved Hermione's Fair Isle yoke sweater :D Great movie, and seeing it through knitter's eyes was a totally different experience!

I have a question for those of you who have seen the most recent movie...Have the designs on the kids school scarves changed?
I know that originally each school scarf had two colors, equal blocks of each color. Lately I have been seeing scarves for each school that have a dominate color with thinner stripes oF the second color...
Anyone?
My concert band will be playing music from the Harry Potter movies in our next spring concert and I wanted to make a scarf of each school...one for each of the four of us that play percussion.
Being the AR person I am, I want to make them the "right" way! LOL
Thanks!

I believe the scarves are the same as in the third and fourth movies, with the trapped bar design. :)
I too was totally distracted by all the fabulous knitwear! Every time I saw something, I was like, "Oooh, I have to knit that!"... until the next piece came along. Apparently the last-minute knitting of my Ravenclaw outfit didn't suck all the knitting energy out of me after all. ;)

Yes, the Griffindor scarves were dominantly maroon with the smaller stripes of gold.

I also like the blue shrug/shor sweater that Luna Lovegood wore. It would be cute for my daughter.

I happen to look very good in pink :P The ONLY one of hers I was very taken with, is the lace cardi... Hers just didn't fit properly.

I saw it last night, and I was looking at Umbridge's cardigan. I think I'll try to copy that one.

I liked Ginny's winter hat in this one....is it bad that I want to go see the movie again to get another look?

If I remember correctly, the width of the stripes had something to do with your year at Hogwarts. It changed each book because they were a different year.

It was same for movie 1/2 and then the same for movie 3/4. You didn't really see school scarves in this movie, as they seem to be spending a lot more time out of uniform. I thought it was purely that they wanted a scaft that was a little less 'out there'.

haha definately different to see now that I'm a knitter. That's all I kept looking at was what they were wearing!!! Loved all the knit items, especially Hermione's hoodie!
Not so impressed with the movie though I felt they really skipped a lot and of course the book is always better.

Was anyone able to form a pattern for this Hermione sweater?

I'm going to develop one based on my measurements and the Book of Sweater Patterns after I take the bar exam this month, but haven't done so yet.
I think it could be pretty simple to take a top down raglan and knit that and add a hood.

I'm extremely new at making sweaters (never made one yet, will soon learn) Looks hard lol. So if you ever do get a chance to plot the pattern, could you kindly post ? Thanks!

I need Neville's sweater.
just to hang on the wall.
and Luna's scarf...

Knitme, I will definitely do that.
I did like Luna's knits most of the time.
I hate Umbridge and am not such a fan of pink, so probably not going to be doing her cardigan.

Looking forward to seeing it! Thank you!
Hermione also wore that white knitted beanie? and scarf, but I don't have a photo of that. It's when they were walking on that bridge and Ron said to her "...what have you done with Hermione Granger?" If I find a photo I will try posting. But if someone can do a pattern on those, I would love to see!
Would like to see Luna's knits too!
Yes please don't do Umbridge at all.

You know, in Umbridge's defense(/defence), I was astounded at the sheer number of hideous pink outfits she had. I think the ingenuity required to come up with that much fug (and especially that awful felted... thing) deserves some admiration. The woman really is an evil genius. *shudder*

I Just loved the Christmas scene and died laughing at Ron's present and his remark of why he wasn't wearing it, " I'll look like a bloody idiot, that's why!"
hehe.
I really want Hermione's Gryffindor coloured sweater and the took she was wearing after the first DA meeting.

The lavendar thing that Luna is wearing (haven't seen the movie, but I read you guys' posts) has been crocheted (it is a crocheted top in the movie, not knit, as I understand), and the person has put the pattern up. It's over on craftster:

Actually, did you guys notice that everyone else wore knits, but everything Luna had was crocheted? I think it was symbolic, since she makes the speech about how she's a bit different.

I REALLY liked the fair-isle yoke sweater Hermione had on - now all I do is day dream about knitting a LS fair-isle pullover and scour the web looking for a similar, yet easy, pattern.
Is this one from Webs close? http://img.yarn.com/images/items/33/2816/164671.jpg
