you are exquisite, as always, but the dog--this is just a classic!

Love all the legs! SEXY!!! :D

Yup, you've got your priorities in order. Have a dog (actually 2), so if I could just learn to knit socks, I'd be all set.

I hope you were in air conditioning for the photo shoot. Whew.

Beautiful. Koigu?

rawr...

what yarn is that

Posted by: anna

What's that say, on your leg? Sexy. All of it.

Posted by: Norma

Nice and comfy looking! Oh yeah, so ready for fall...

Posted by: Cassie

Would socks for the dog be appropriate?

:-)

Love dem colors.

Sexy Sadie needs some socks!

(Ha, like they don't have enough sliding on the hardwood for you to worry about with the slamming around they would do with socks on! ;P)

Great looking socks! At first glance, I didn't even notice your dog. (I'm used to seeing my basset's big feet) She's got cute little feet...how about a pair of cute little socks?

Love those socks, beautiful colors!!

Posted by: Julia

Great socks and colors. Sorry you're stressed and hope it's better soon.

Yowsa...what a photo! normally I don't think of socks as drop-dead sexy, but that tattoo really does the trick :-)

Stressed out here, too. I wonder if socks would help...though wool is not the best idea right now.

Here's hoping the sh*t fairy loses her wand. Hang in there :-)

Thinking of you... Knitting is excellent for stress...

Beautiful socks. That color is smashing.

The ultimate weapon against stress - socks and your dogs. Hope all is going well for you.

Lovely socks. Those colours make me happy even on the monitor.

And that's an intriguing first line. . . can't wait to get my hands on your book.

Pretty socks! Hope things de-stress for you real soon!

Posted by: Karen

Simple - love the socks, love the dog legs, love your legs, love you.

Hey Cari, cool socks! Do they really stay up if you don't rib the legs?

Posted by: LeAnne

Beautiful colors! Such cute feet! And cute little skinny dog feet, too! Sorry to hear you are stressed! (((big big hugs!)))

Posted by: pippy

Those socks make me long for fall -- so gorgeous. I love the rolled top. It was good of Diego to stand still while Sadie took the photo!

How clever of you to have placed your tattoo exactly right so that it isn't obscured by the lovely socks. It's like the socks are issuing cryptic messages. I'm thinking good thoughts for your book!

Posted by: Sarah

Socks and dogs heal. But I, too, would like to know how they stay up without ribbing.

Posted by: Bettina

send your stress over here - i'll take care of it.

Posted by: carolyn

Oh that yarn! How beautiful. You know, a couple years ago I would have called you nuts if you'd have said I'd be calling socks beautiful. Ah the things I know now :)

Posted by: Vicki

hopefully not too much stress. (the socks are lovely)

Posted by: rebecca

You've got that right!!

Posted by: margene

Boo!

Posted by: Iris

Always in search of cool sock yarn! Would you mind posting the yarn used and the number of skeins?
Thanks,
Claudia

Posted by: Claudia

Clearly I need some handknit socks, since I have the dog and the stress... hope yours gets better soooon!
I got a spindle though, which is fun, and the inlaws are adopting a retired racing greyhound - squeeeeee!

Posted by: Kel

Nice! My hands hurt too bad when I try to knit socks. Any suggestions?

P.S. I love your blog. I've been reading silently for about a month!

Posted by: Stephie-P

Beautiful colors! Socks are quite satisfying because they're small projects. Hope making those destressed you a bit!
