  It’s always at this point in the summer when I start thinking about needing to be made warm again, instead of paying attention to all the sweating and wishing I had a suitable device to keep me permanently cool.  (And the inventor of modern air conditioning rolls in his grave.)

  So I’m fantasizing about what I’m going to knit to wear on a much breezier day, hopefully one during which leaves fall from trees.

  Not a bunch of men changing giant clocks.  It’s going to take a lot of time.  Maybe I’ll start tomorrow… right after I clean out that closet.
