Option 1: Know what attracts you. The dark wizard may use this to cast their manipulative web over you. For example if dark heavy chocolate is very appealing and suddenly Prof. Lockhart begins to smell of a hundred weight of the best swiss, you should ask yourself why. What would be a sure way of attracting you into a dark wizard’s clutches and what project would you create to represent this? For example, if you find the turning of the leaves in the fall to be incredibly romantic then you could craft a scarf made of beautiful autumnal colors to represent this.
Option 2: Protection from a love spell: create something that will counteract spell-induced infatuation. For example, if you love the smell of roses and this would cause you to follow their scent, perhaps a cowl that could be pulled up to shield your nose from olfactory seduction would be of use.

Option 1: Knit, crochet, dye, weave, or spin an item that will in turn be useful to you as a knitter, crocheter, dyer, weaver, or spinner. Ex: a project bag, needle cozy or one of those fancy crochet spiral hook holders, spindle organizer, or hot (dye) pot holders. Be creative, but most importantly get something useful out of this assignment!
Option 2: Spinners, Dyers, and Fiber Processors ONLY, you may create something inspired by a specific, favorite muggle artifact of yours. Ex: Do you have an affinity for electrical wire and plugs? Spin a yarn reminiscent of these multi-colored conductors of muggle-magic! This option is a bit more abstract, so you’re really going to have to sell it with your turn-in story.
Secret Option 3: Meddle with Muggle Artifacts. If you’re feeling up to a breach of the Secrecy Statute, go ahead and magically (knitterly, crocheterly, or fiberly) modify an everyday item. This includes all manners of kooky cozies and any Yarn Bombing techniques that won’t result in an extended stay in Azkaban. Ex: toilet paper roll cozy anyone? Bonus points will definitely be awarded for brazenness!
