It’s the practice that makes perfect and you’ll have time to do so for the rest of the term.

“First, I would like you to choose from the many fleece patterns on your desk. And I want you to place it flat, with the right side facing upwards.’’ After giving that instruction, Kay headed back to her desk. She had chosen the purple pattern with the peace symbols on it. It was placed the right side up.

“Take your measuring tape and measure out twenty four inches wide and fifteen inches wide. You can mark where the measurements end using pins. Just stick them on the fleece.

“Next, cut six inches from bottom of fleece to make cuff. Fold pieces in half so wrong sides are facing up.’’ The professor took another pause here after finishing the steps herself to stand up. “Please raise your hand if you need assistance.’’

Fleece hats!

Well, he liked beanies... but he doubted he'd be able to make something he would actually wear in public, so instead he was going to have fun with it.

Scanning the fleece patterns that were available to be used, he chose the pattern with puppies (because who in their right mind didn't like puppies?), and spread it flat over the desk, with the right side facing up. Using the measuring tape - a very muggle one, mind you, not the kind they used to measure in magical shops - Daehyun measured with great care the twenty four and fifteen inches, and used pins to mark the measurements. Measuring another six inches from the bottom of the fleece, he followed the professor's instructions and cut into the fleece, neatly folding the pieces in half, their back side now facing up.

Deep breath.

Following precise instructions, he could do. But he feared the moment he'd have to use the scary sewing machine.
