Is it Fall Yet?

  I've been trying to figure out if the lipstick I've been trying to pan has gone bad or if the wax is just sweating.  It is also pretty old, so I might be retiring it before I totally finishing it.  I have finished a few more items and have made note about it on my 2018 Project Pan page.  We'll see how it looks in a day or two.
  I plan on adding a small eye-shadow palette to the list to go with the gold eye-shadow and the bronzer.  While I still like my usual look I make with the two of them, I like being able to change it up.  I didn't like it at all the first few times I tried it, but this last time it really impressed me.  I used a different eye-shadow base, so that is probably the big difference and what helped it perform better.

  The light blue sweater is coming along nicely.  I was trying to think of something fun to do along the sleeves, but I think that keeping them plain will help to really test my theory.  If I make more like this, then I can mess with sleeve patterning more.

 While I'm glad that summer will be coming to an end at some point, I'm not looking forward to it becoming busy at work.  I don't mind the work, it just means that I will have less time to knit and pretend that I'm cleaning my house.  There will be some more changes on how things get done, so I'm hoping that the entire process will be sped up a little and give me more time to knit again.
 I am really excited to wear longer sleeves and not have to worry about the temperature of a building when knitting larger things too.  I would add that I'm excited to drink hot tea and hot chocolate, but Bill likes to keep our house a bit chilly, so I can do those things all year long.
