The Looks

 

The look you give your mom, when she wants to try your new Fair Isle sweater on you when it's 70° outside. Really mom? Can't this wait until a day when I actually need a sweater? I'm melting, I'm about to start panting. My mom is a little obsessed with Fair Isle stuff. The Peterson side of her family is from Sweden, Fair Isle is popular in Scandinavia, so I've been told. Hence mom's attraction to Fair Isle patterns. For those that are unaware, Fair Isle is a popular style of knitting for sweaters. Now don't say you never learned anything from a dog if you didn't already know that.

 

 

Only because I have a good mommy, I decided to soften my glare and give her a nice look while wearing my new Fair Isle sweater. I guess because she was so overly excited to find a Fair Isle patterned sweater for my furriness. Now that I humored her with this sweet expression, hopefully she'll take this thing off me. We're still having a "heat wave" in December. I need a speedo and sunscreen not a sweater!
