Pattern Round-Up: The Weasley Sweater

Best.  Movie.  Ever.

OK, fine, I tend to be hyperbolic.  But seriously, guys.  The movie (it's HP7b, in case you've been living under a rock) was so super fantastic.

I just saw the last movie. It was fantastic but I so hated to see the whole series come to an end.
