pride & prejudice project planned

Over at Knit the Classics, we are starting Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, one of my very favorite authors. Love that subtle wit. And my project to knit along with P&P will be..

The Flower Hat from Interweave Knits Winter 2004 issue. The P&P sisters always wear bonnets, and this Flower Hat has a bit of the English countryside to it. The younger sisters covet ribbon; this hat has a silk ribbon flower on it (although I may do a knitted flower). The yarn is Yorkshire Tweed Chunky in color Damp (teal). Damp seems like the perfect color to represent those moldy old English homes.

As if I didn't have enough to do, I joined this:

for small, mystery projects which could be good gifts. I need some easy cotton dishcloth knitting for meditative reasons!
