Goodbye Sweaters


When I was traveling in Cuzco, I bought a bright colorful alpaca sweater. It turned out to be a blessing as the material is light, warm and somewhat waterproof. I am allergic to wool but was surprised that I didn’t react to alpaca.

I decided to wear it to school. By midmorning, I was miserably sneezing that I had to take an antihistamine, which caused me to be dopey for the rest of the day. The sad part of this is the realization that I cannot wear wool or alpaca, give me synthetic sweaters! And I have so many wool sweaters that I am resigned to give away—gifts., beautiful gifts, from family and friends. But what is the point of having them if I cannot wear them? Goodbye Sweaters.
