I think its ironic that I am running a post about knits at the very same time I am sitting on the beach enjoying whats left of the summer. That's the nature of the beast though, you always have to be looking ahead. At work we are already starting to plan for FW 2011, talk about foresightedness.

Here in Maryland, we had our first real cool down this week and it was a much welcomed change from the persistent 90+ temperatures we've been having all summer long. Tuesday was the first day that I was able to wear a (light) sweater to work and be comfortable inside and out. I think that was part of the inspiration behind this post.

The other part was I just can't resist the casual-coolness of a Navajo print on a cozy sweater. We saw some of this last year and I am so glad that its back for another round.

Thoughts?
