autumnal equations

one rainy weekend + purusing Fitted Knits + Real Simple's fall fashion preview = I'm completely ready for fall

It amazes me sometimes how much the change of the seasons affects our moods and inspirations. For me this is true never more so than in spring and fall. I suppose it's those transitional periods that get me so excited, the anticipation of novelty.

That said, transition and anticipation often take their toll. And I've got a lot of both in my life just now. I'll be taking a brief hiatus over the next week or so while (it's not as though I post regularly, but so you know). Anticipate progress and pictures upon my return.

The above vintage pattern is one I thrifted over the summer. The girl on the right reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in How to Steal a Million - give me a white helmet and moon glasses and I'm set!
