What's a Fascinator? What's a Cloud?
A Fascinator is a ladies' head scarf. I found this one on the internet. I can see how this pattern would work well for this type of scarf.
According to Wikiapedia: A fascinator is a fashion accessory, more commonly worn by women, on the head or in the hair.[1] While it is simply defined as a head scarf, it may be anything from a small hair piece to a more complicated creation, but generally it is less substantial than a hat. It may be made from many materials, e.g. feathers or lace, and attaches to the head by varying means. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascinator
Here's a swatch and a detail from the swatch from The Art of Knitting 1897 that's titled
Design for Knitting Shawls, Fascinators, Clouds, etc.
A cloud was a little harder to find but here's a description from The Best of Everything.http://tinyurl.com/2y7oln
