Comfortable.

The cooler nights have admittedly been getting to me.  Summer took so long to arrive I no longer care if it stays.  Pining for wool.  I not so jokingly tell my family we'll get an alpaca when we buy our house.  For now I'll make do with a simple sweater made of one. 

Kids at school, canning done for the year, garden putting it's energy into ripening the last fruits.  Nothing to plant.  No activities to plan. 

Frantic running from practice to games even finds it's rhythm.  Picnics packed, eating in the grass, knitting draped on lap, watching them run and run and run...

Lengthened waist.  Lengthened arms.  Left off buttons.  Simple stockinette body shows off the thick/thin baby alpaca blend.  Perfect for the morning walk to school, while the air is still crisp.  Turn on the radio and curl up with the second cup.  Is that a leaf that just fell?

Comfortable.
