Knits in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I've been collecting pictures of knits (and crocheted pieces) in the newest Harry Potter movie. I thought perhaps these photos would be helpful to others, so I'm listing them here. If you have links to add or find knits I've missed, please leave a comment and I will add them! I've skipped a couple of the super tiny stitches, plain knit cardigans and such. They're obviously machine knit and I don't feel there's enough really spectacular or unique about them to include them in the list.

Hermione's Hat & Fair Isle Scarf (my attempts at patterns: hat and scarf): 1, 2, 3, 4,

Ron's Brown Striped Hat and Fair Isle Sweater: 1,

Quidditch Sweaters: 1, 2, 3,

Luna's Furry Sweater: 1,

Neville's Fair Isle Vest & Hermione's Fair Isle Cardigan: 1,

Hermione's Gray Tailored Cardigan: 1,

Ron's Striped Cardigan: 1, (There's got to be a better pic out there than this!)

I'm also fairly certain that Lupin, Tonks, and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were wearing some nice knits as well, but I couldn't find any decent screen shots. Perhaps when the DVD comes out, it will be easier to grab those images.

  1. I had the impression that Hermione's Hat was more like a square at the top ... no?

  2. Do you happen to have, or know where to get a pattern for Ron's striped cardigan? I've been looking with no luck.

  3. Chantal, good question! Looked to me (in my single viewing) like a single seam across the top. I plan to go again with my mother this week, so I'll look again! Thanks for the suggestion.

  4. Andrea - no, not yet! I will certainly add links if I do. If i could get a better picture, I might be able to find a pattern with a similar shape and then just work up a stripe pattern. It appears to be a fairly basic cardigan.

  5. Hermione's hat is square at the top. I found a pattern that was created before the movie came out and it was round on top. When I went to see the movie, it was to my dismay that the hat was square.

  6. I'm hunting for Ron's striped cardigan, too, if anyone locates it.

  8. Re: Hermione's Tailored Sweater: I sure don't. It appears to be a finely-knit machine-knit. It's not one I plan to tackle. If I find one, I'll surely post it!
