"Well, you split your soul, you see, and hide part of it in an object outside the body. Then, even if one’s body is attacked or destroyed, one cannot die, for part of the soul remains earthbound and undamaged. But of course, existence in such a form . . ." ~ Slughorn (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince)
Can you imagine... being immortal? Having your soul split into pieces... the pain, and torment that could cause? I can't imagine it. I guess I just don't have the guts to live on forever... but then again, I also am not one for world domination. In any case, that evil villan we all love to hate did it. Most people that attempted to create a horcrux could only do it one time, but not him... not "He Who Must Not Be Named". Nope, this dude had guts, and not just some wimpy guts, he had massive room filling guts, that allowed him to split his soul not once, not twice, not even thrice (three times), but SIX times. Yes, that's right! Six!!!!! Ok, so actually he did it seven times, but he didn't mean to create the last horcrux. That was an accident. When he tried to kill Harry, and his plan failed, he accidently created a horcrux in Harry.... Not exactly sure how it happened, but hey, I don't need to know. :-p.
So, as you can see from the above picture there are only 6 horcrux's shown and didn't I just mention that he split his soul into 7 pieces? Well, the reason that there isn't a 7th pattern showing with these 6 is because #7 is Harry... again mentioned above. I have already released the Harry pattern so I felt it was kind of redundant to do it again... Make sense? Quiz time... How many horcrux's???
SEVEN!!!! Good job, now get your hooks and yarn out and start crocheting these amazing blocks.
***Just a quick note...Normally when I release a pattern I have both a 25x25 and 30x30 block, but to get more patterns out to the public quicker I will only be releasing the graphs in size 30x30. Many I already have smaller and eventually I will update the pdf, but for now, I hope this at least helps. ***
