4. Hagrid (Harry Potter Art Yarn Advent Calendar)


But at that moment, Hagrid leapt from the sofa and drew a battered pink umbrella from inside his coat. Pointing this at Uncle Vernon like a sword, he said, "I'm warning you, Dursley -I'm warning you -- one more word... " 

- Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J. K. Rowling




Description: I chose the colours and rustic fibre types because they seemed to be perfect for hairy Hagrid ;-) The texture of the yarn is very interesting, and the highlights of bright pink silk strips really make it into something unique. I chose them because of Hagrid’s battered pink umbrella, which is really concealing his once broken wand and allows him to do magic, though he isn’t actually supposed to. There’s also an umbrella charm in this yarn. Fibre Types: merino wool, gotland wool, and other natural wools (some of them locks)
Colours: dark brown, greys
Add-Ins: brown thread, pink silk strips, umbrella charm
