  1. 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.

    Beautiful. Koigu?

  5. 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)

  6. 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?

  9. 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 🙂

  11. 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.

  16. 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!

  17. 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!

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

  19. 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 🙂

    I got a spindle though, which is fun, and the inlaws are adopting a retired racing greyhound – squeeeeee!

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