Voldemort and Nagini knitted dolls


New in my Etsy shop: Voldemort is about 15 inches tall and is hand-knitted from acrylic yarn. He is dressed in a floor-length evil-chap black robe with flared sleeves and black star fastening at front. He is wearing a jewel-encrusted snake pendant charm at his neck.


Nagini the snake is a whopping 19 inches long and has a flexible foam-covered wire stuffing, so she is fully posable - she's big enough to wrap around any of my Harry Potter dolls (hope she keeps away from Snape). She has a striped top, beige underbelly, ribbon tongue and black toy safety eyes.


Both Voldemort and Nagini are hand-knitted from my own patterns. If you'd like to make your own Snape or Lucius Malfoy dolls, you can buy my knitting patterns, too. Other Harry Potter dolls on the way!

Lucius Malfoy doll knitting pattern

This is my knitting pattern to make a 12 inch Lucius Malfoy doll. Lucius knits up on 4mm needles, using the double knitting yarn of your choice. He'd probably prefer something luxurious and expensive for his coat, but that's something you'll have to discuss with him.

Lucius is wearing an Edwardian-style smoking jacket with silver bead buttons, a grey cravat and a silver-buckled belt. He's carrying his trademark cane.

You can buy this 8-page knitting pattern in my Etsy shop.

Severus Snape plays Scrabble


So, if I've given ten points to Slytherin on a triple word square, that means that they get thirty points, is that correct? No? I think you'll find that I know the rules of this pathetically simple word game better than you do. Detention for the next six Saturdays.

Severus Snape knitted doll


Severus Snape is about 12 inches tall and knitted from acrylic yarn. He is dressed in his trademark Victorian frock coat complete with lots of tiny hand-sewn buttons and is delightfully grumpy.

He is hand-knitted from one of my own patterns and is looking forward to sitting in your house and taking house points away from you at every opportunity.

Buy Severus in my Etsy shop - or why not make your own from my pattern?

Slytherin House pure wool fingerless gloves



Dark heart, warm hands - a pair of 100% merino wool Slytherin house fingerless gloves/wrist warmers, knitted in grey and green house colours.

These gloves have been hand knitted (by me!) from one of my own patterns, using 100% merino wool, because acrylic is for Hufflepuffs.

Length 19 cm, and gloves are 14cm measured round at base of fingers but have plenty of stretch. They can be gently machine washed at 30 degrees by a house elf.

Skull is not included, it belongs in the common room, sorry. Buy the gloves from my Etsy shop!

Slytherin House pure wool mittens

Dark heart, warm hands - a pair of 100% merino wool Slytherin house mittens, knitted in grey and green house colours.

These mittens have been hand knitted (by me!) using a smaller needle to create thick, snug mittens which will keep you warm no matter how dank your dungeon. Mittens are knitted in 100% merino wool, because acrylic is for Hufflepuffs.

Length 23 cm from cuff to finger tip. Mittens are 20cm measured round at base of fingers but have plenty of stretch. They can be gently machine washed at 30 degrees by a house elf.


Skull is not included, it belongs in the common room, sorry.

Buy them in my Etsy shop or contact me for a custom pair.
