Flying Assignment!
Each team consists of three chasers, two beaters, one keeper and one seeker. Scoring with the quaffle is worth 10 points and catching the snitch nets your team 150 points.
The rules of quidditch are as follows:
Players can fly as high as they want they cannot leave the pitch boundaries or the quaffle will be forfeited to the other team.
Only the team captain can call a time out. The time out can last as long as two hours if the game has gone over twelve hours. The team must return to the pitch during this time or they are disqualified.
The referee can impose penalties. A single Chaser may take the penalty by flying from the central circle towards the scoring area. The opposing team's Keeper may attempt to stop the shot being scored, but no other player may interfere.
Contact such as pushing and shoving is allowed but no grabbing of brooms or persons.
No substitution of a player is allowed, even if they are badly injured.
Players can take their wands onto the pitch but only for protection. They are not allowed to use them on other players, the four balls, any broomsticks, the ref or the spectators.

Another assignment done!
Yay a cup cozy! It's in one of my favorite colors too, green! I just used some yarn I had left over from another project. I found the pattern for free on Ravelry. Now to get to some other projects! :)

Ketchup time
I mean catch up time teehee. I have been a naughty blogger but I am back now...lucky you. :) So this is my owl dishcloth.
I know the owl is hard to see but its there (the yarn is also much darker blue). The owl is in the likeness of my sweet owl, Boo. Boo is a long-eared owl. Long-eared Owls are buoyant fliers, appearing to glide noiselessly even when their wings are flapping. They are very manoeuvrable and can fly through fairly dense brush. They fly moth-like, often hovering and fluttering while looking for prey. When roosting, a Long-eared Owl will stretch its body to make itself appear like a tree branch. Unlike most other Owls, during winter they may roost communally (7 to 50 Owls) in dense thickets and range over very large undefended foraging areas. Communal roost sites are often used year after year, probably by the same birds. Here is my essay professor! :)

This is my other knitting project. I am working on the Sugarplum Shrug. It's pink and sparkly but thats hard to see in the picture. I just have to finish knitting up the edging and sew it on there. Then as usual I have a million other projects I need to get to.
The hogwarts school year has begun. Its year one of HBLOES and I am the charms professor. So it should be an exciting term. HSKS7 starts at the end of January and I can't wait to start that as well. Now I need to go start my apparitions homework. :)
