Gaaaaaaaaaaaah.

I think the weather is getting me down. How else to explain nearly bursting into tears when the Asian guy on The Weather Channel (my favorite of the weather-heads on there) talks about how hot and dry it is going to be where I live?

Dallas is facing its 13th day of 100*+ weather today. My weather is not unlike Dallas'.

I did get a fair amount more done on the shawl edging last night, but it feels like the shawl "grows" while I'm sleeping, and there's lots more edging to make and apply.

I think I'm going to start a new project this evening. I dug out some of the Wool-ease sportweight yarn I have in stash, and am going to do the simple, button-front vest that is on the label pattern.

Yeah, I know, some people HATE Wool-ease and won't use it. I don't mind it myself, and it is less warm for this climate. My fiber-snobbery extends only to Red Heart and the other scratchy feeling acrylics.
