Central Texas is experiencing Sweater Weather for the first time this
fall! Overnight a "strong cold front" blew down out of the upper
Midwest - I woke up to a blustery 50F with drizzle.

Not-so-small boy wore his "jack-o-lantern" sweater to school - it's a
WoolPak sweater made of BRIGHT ORANGE wool yarn onto which I appliqued
at his request many assorted Hallowe'en patches, and I broke out my
Boyfriend Sweater for the morning carpool run to school.

I was planning to get out and do some yardwork today but I guess I'll
stay in and knit. What a bummer!

*grin* I'm having a slight giggle about the thought of 50 F being cold.
Yes, I do understand that it *is* cold to people not used to it... so I'm
not making fun.

Today we're in the 70's, and the rest of the week it's supposed to drop to
the 50's. So, while today is nice t-shirt weather, we will be putting on
sweatshirts the rest of the week... but we don't mind because we know how
much colder it can and will get throughout the winter. ;o)

*hugs*

I grew up in the Great White North - cold doesn't bother me. Lack of
opportunity to show off my handknit sweaters is a problem, however, so I
take every chance I get :D

My part of Texas doesn't really get much sweater weather, you know!

Well, there you go! Wear your sweaters in good health, and with pride that
you have something nice and handmade that most people in your area don't
have. ;o)
