Beating the Heat

While the rest of the United States is positively roasting with temperatures in triple digits, we here on the western fringe of the continent are having a very cool, damp summer. Today I am wearing a sweater. :p

I have noticed on the weather maps for the past week or two that even the interior of Alaska has warmer weather than Seattle. It was with a sigh of envy and irony that I shipped off the following pattern for sleeveless pullover knit tops (Simplicity 9035) to a customer in Alaska today. It's cute, timeless, fun-in-the-sun fashion from the 1970s!

I hope you all are keeping comfortable in style, no matter the weather!
