The Best Laid Plans

So I've been thinking about sweaters - specifically knitting sweaters for myself. I would really like to knit at least 3-4 that I could wear to work.

But since moving into my new office in early January, circumstances have forced me to re-think the possible patterns.

Because when I go to work, the first thing that happens is that I open a window in my office. In the middle of winter. Even during snowstorms.

I work in an historic building (old building, old steam radiators). My office is usually between 80-84 degrees.

This is the temperature in my office - after my window has been open all day.

But I get a chance to cool off at home while sitting in our drafty living room. Right now I'm wearing fingerless mitts and have a cowl pulled over my head as I type.  I'm not sure if the temperature in the living room is really that cool or if the sauna that is my office is thinning my blood.
