“The common room looked strange, full of people wearing different colors instead of the usual mass of black. Parvati was waiting for Harry at the foot of the stairs. She looked very pretty indeed, in robes of shocking pink, with her long dark plait braided with gold, and gold bracelets glimmering at her wrists.”
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
As a minor character in the Harry Potter franchise, little is really known about Parvati Patil. We know that she and her twin sister Padma are of Indian descent and are exceptionally pretty. Parvati develops a love of Divination along with her best friend Lavender Brown. Harry asks Parvati to be his date to the Yule Ball and Parvati seems to enjoy the attention of attending with a Hogwarts champion, but gets annoyed quickly at Harry’s inattention. I mean, who wouldn’t?
We don’t see a lot of the Gryffindor daring, nerve, and chivalry in Parvati except for a couple of one-liners. In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Parvati sticks up for Neville Longbottom when Draco Malfoy is mocking him after Neville’s first disastrous flight on a broomstick. Parvati also joins the semi-rebellious group Dumbledore’s Army and fights in the Battle of Hogwarts during her seventh year.
Parvati Patil is the sixth block in the Harry Potter Gryffindors C2C Crochet Afghan.
