I don't know what I'm *supposed* to do, but I admire her. I do think she makes an ass of herself with the knitting, but I think she's reacting more to the tepid reception her efforts have had among the other students than anything. I think she's being stubborn, but I think it's because, fundamentally, she knows slavery is wrong and she can't seem to make any headway with others on this rather obvious point. She feels helpless and she doesn't accept that. I don't think she knows what to do, but I'm sure there are more developments to come.

I feel like JKR kinda takes the piss out of almost everyone, sooner or later.
