On a whim I decided to join Amanda's Fringe Hat Along yesterday. I'm using a skein of Madeline Tosh DK (Yarrow Bloom, I think) that I've had on my shelf for over a year. It looks like a quick knit, which is good. I plan on knitting the slouchy version.
I began to read An Episode of Sparrows last night, too. I have had it on my bedside table for months, but it kept getting pushed aside. I think that it will be a good February read with all the talk of a hidden garden and stolen dirt. It makes me want to watch The Secret Garden with my little ones.
oh how fun about the hat! what a lovely book title, I had not heard of it!
ReplyDeleteThe hat pattern looks great. I love An Episode of Sparrows and The Secret Garden. Some books are just so worth revisiting.
ReplyDeleteIf you're still in that mood in a month or two, try Enchanted April!
ReplyDeleteOh a book I have never read! Yay!
ReplyDeleteAnd oh it is driving me batty...bananas and what in your pretty bowl?
Slouchy hats are so much fun! I'm working on one myself right now.
