Knit 2 or 3 rows in stockinette stitch then bind off all stitches

DRAWSTRING CLOSURE:
I-cord for as long as you would like the strap to be. (I made mine about 12" for a wrist strap.) Thread drawstring in and out of holes along the bottom.
For extra sturdiness, stockinette stitch a tiny rectangle about .5" x 1", sew each end to the middle, and pull drawstrings through the holes.

I'm a huge HP fan, and that is lovely! Sounds kind of complicated from looking at your instructions...but wow! That's awesome. Gotta love Mrs. Weasley's sweaters. :-D

Sleeves question

Comment from Carley

I loved this the moment I laid eyes on it.I've never knitted a real sweater so I thought I'd start with your cell cozy. I finished the body and when I got to the sleeves I fell off my broom so to speak. If you start with 12 stitches and knit one, increase one how do you end up with 18? you knit 12 and increase 11 that makes 23. then how do you transfer round knitting to one needle? And how do you do the collar?
I really want to finish this so I can make a whole lot of them for my friends. please explain this to me.

Sorry about that, guys. The pattern is now updated with a fix on the sleeve increases and the collar instructions :o)

I think I'm colorblind.

Comment from Vanessa Jones

Hello Natasha,
I loved viewing your site and your handspun yarn is gorgeous!! I was so encouraged by your comments on the Traveller as opposed to the Traditional wheel , I have been eyeing the Traveller for months and finally am ordering it. Cannot wait to get it. I have never used a wheel but am going to a show this weekend where I will be getting lessons :)

Natasha, I love Santa's little helper! Perfect gift for my beer-drinking buddies. By the way, I have a friend who hangs out at the woolie ewe in Plano...small world, eh?

My MP3 player is warm now...Thank you! I must say that I messed with the pattern a bit. I used a different letter and added a hood for my earbuds. Come see...please http://intertwinement.blogspot.com/

I finally dug around and found a color number for the maroon yarn. The gold I used was just a scrap, though, so I have no more help on that one.

Sorry it took me so long, guys.

Weasley Sweater

Comment from Pamala

Natasha,

I am finished with the body of the sweater and starting to work on the sleeves, however, your instructions do not show how to add the sleeves on to the sweater. I guess I am a little slow, but it looks like you start the sleeves in the round, then end up "transferring all stitches to one needle to make straight knitting easier". Please help!!! I have a sweater with no sleeves!! (-;

Comment from Sara

I found this whilst browsing the Leaky Cauldron and had to contact you to say how amazing this is! Unfortunately I've only ever knitted in straight lines so I have a feeling I'll be working VERY slowly to get this done. Will be worth it though... even if it does turn out somewhat wonky!

Comment from Melissa

I'm still new to this whole knittin' thing, and just wondered. Is the letter worked from top to bottom, or bottom to top? To me it looks like the sweater is worked from bottom to top, thus the letter as well! Thanks muchly!!!

Comment from Natasha

The sweater is knit from the bottom up and therefore so is the sweater.

Also, don't forget to read the letter graph (an all intarsia graphs) from right to left when on a knit row, and left to right when on a purl row.

Comment from Nikata

Does the size given include the sleeves as well? Or is it just for the body part itself. What size of a phone fits into this cute knit? Thanks!

I have just made a Weasley pullover for my almost 13 year old who thought that a wooly pully was just the thing for her phone. It will arrive in her Chistmas stocking. Nice idea - thank you.

Yes, I'm hopelessly American :) I probably should have called it a cell PHONE cozy.

Work in the same way as brand name viagra.

Sleeves

Comment from John

The bit for the sleeves confuses me. I get lost at row 23. Am I just transferring all of the stitches to one needle?

Weasley cell cozy
Posted at 7/13/2011 11:05:42 PM

Comment from Natasha

At row 23, you start working back and forth instead of in the round. You can trasfer them if you want or leave them where they are.

Comment from Anna

I'm a bit stuck already! Round 7 when its "k1, k2tog, yo", does this mean "knit 1, knit 2 together, then do a yarn over stitch to keep the same number of stitches you had originally"?

Tried this method but seem to encounter problems with number of stitches on the first needle - when I have to knit 2 together there's only one left on the first needle.

Please help!

Comment from Natasha

Yes, you should end up with the same amount of stitches after that row. (The yo's make holes for the drawstring to go through.)

Shuffle the stitches around if you need to. It sounds like you should transfer the last stitch on needle 1 to the beginning of needle 2 in order to knit them together.

Good luck!
