For My People

As we all know, sometimes it's hard to come up with stuff for the blog. That's when it's nice to have friends that inspire you demand stuff from you. So, today is about satisfying 3 different friends. Hopefully the rest of you will also be mildly entertained, too.

For La.

Mason's feet. Aren't they just about the cutest kitty feet you've ever seen? Rich and chocolate-y brown and oh-so-fuzzy. I just love Mason's paws.

For Margene.

Here is Seraphim in her current state. Lots and lots of stockinette and just a tiny bit of lace so far. The yarn is the handspun I showed you last week and it is so soft and silky. I love knitting with it and I can't wait to finish it and wear it because it's going to be toasty warm and wicked soft.

For Scout.

My tattoo is on my right ankle. Damn, it's hard to take a picture of your ankle. But just because I love Scout (and all y'all, too) I not only took the picture but I shaved my legs for the occasion.

That should satisfy the masses. And if the rest of you want anything, get in line. Mwah.

Mason has such cute feet!
Seraphim is coming along so quickly!
Nice tattoo.

Posted by: Karen at March 6, 2007 7:54 AM

My tattoo looks almost just like yours except I have only one morning glory and it's blue. :)

You have made good progress already on Seraphim!

Posted by: Karen at March 6, 2007 7:55 AM

Shaving your legs for a blog pic - now that's dedication!

Posted by: michelle at March 6, 2007 7:57 AM

Mason does have cute paws...I love his color and how fuzzy they are. Seraphim is fabu in your handspun! The color and texture are perfect for her.
I've missed your tatt...thanks for the memories and for going all out with a shave;-)

Posted by: margene at March 6, 2007 7:59 AM

I am soooo delighted you are putting your beautiful handspun to such good use. YAY! It looks wonderful so far.

Posted by: Anne at March 6, 2007 8:03 AM

Mason's sweet little paws...how cute! I'm not brave enough for a tattoo!! Love the color of your shawl, can't wait to see it finished.

Posted by: Robin at March 6, 2007 8:20 AM

Cute, cute little chocolate toes!

I love that handspun, it will make a glorious shawl!

Posted by: Kim at March 6, 2007 8:23 AM

Very cute cat feet!

Seraphem is looking lovely! All that stockinette has kept me at bay, but I am slowly getting sucked in the more beauties like this I see!

Cute tat! You think ankles are hard to photo? Mine is on my low back!

Posted by: Leah at March 6, 2007 8:26 AM

Oh how I love kitty toes! The shawl looks scrumptious, and I like the tatoo, I need to figure out how to photograph the back of my shoulder. That or finally make the husband learn to use the new camera.

Posted by: PumpkinMama at March 6, 2007 8:27 AM

Awww, cute kitty paws :)

Seraphim is looking great.

Your tatoo is nice; I've wanted one, but am too chicken (and can't decide what I want anyway).

Posted by: Julie at March 6, 2007 8:44 AM

Kitty feeeeeet!! Great tat, pretty colors.

Posted by: jessica~ at March 6, 2007 8:47 AM

Cat feet really are just about the cutest thing on the planet. The exception would be when they are poking you a 6am because they are ready for breakfast.

Posted by: Emily at March 6, 2007 8:48 AM

The kitty feet really are cute. Seraphim is going to be wonderful in your handspun.

Posted by: hillary at March 6, 2007 8:54 AM

Such cute fuzzy feet! i miss having a kitty cat. My last cat had a few orange markings in her gray tabby coat, including ONE orange toe in the front.
Seraphim looks great.

Posted by: Paula at March 6, 2007 8:54 AM

Ah - you should have left your legs unshaven - it would look like thorns through the vines. Pretty yet with an edge like it's owner?

Posted by: kristi and otis at March 6, 2007 9:04 AM

Siamese Kitty Paws are just the BEST!

Awwww! Thank you for shaving AND posting. I love that!

Posted by: scoutj at March 6, 2007 9:40 AM

Those paws are adorable!

Posted by: Rachel at March 6, 2007 9:42 AM

That's a good looking tat. And Sepharim looks lovely -- it's on my list.

Posted by: Kathy at March 6, 2007 10:10 AM

Yay for Seraphim! It looks great.

Posted by: Wanda at March 6, 2007 10:13 AM

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart - for shaving ;o)

Posted by: JessaLu at March 6, 2007 10:16 AM

What a revelatory post. I want a recipe for a gooey fudgy calorie-free chocolate treat. (Also, could you please move the Presidential Range a few miles east?)

Posted by: Lucia at March 6, 2007 10:24 AM

i didn't know you had a tattoo.

Posted by: maryse at March 6, 2007 11:40 AM

Meezer paws are the best. Mimi has a thumb because she has an extra toe.

And taking a photo of your ankle is much easier than taking a photo of your back side. I will be posting a photo of my dragon tomorrow.

Posted by: Mia at March 6, 2007 12:16 PM

Awwwwwwww... Love kitty feet in the morning as long as they aren't walking across my face. o.0

Seraphim looks wonderful!

You must really love Scout. Shaving, taking pics and posting them. *L*

Posted by: Cookie at March 6, 2007 12:48 PM

Wow, you're really cruising along on Seraphim! I can't wait to see the finished shawl.

Posted by: Rachel at March 6, 2007 1:11 PM

Cool tattoo... is Hannah going to get a matching one? hee hee. Sorry, had to say it. Dan has one ( that i LOVE) and is planning on a few more, but he is adamantly opposed to letting me or our (future) kids get them. :)

Pumpkin thinks Mason's feet are the bomb... She likes a man with a little fur between his toes.

:) Kate

Posted by: kate at March 6, 2007 1:11 PM

Hmmm, shaving is on my list for later today, too. Going to yoga. :P

Posted by: Norma at March 6, 2007 1:31 PM

Mason has cute feet!!!! But, I am curious as to what he is standing on...

The shawl is beautiful!!!

I never figured you to have a tattoo...how interesting - it is pretty!!! Too chicken to get one...maybe one day!!!

Posted by: Sara at March 6, 2007 2:16 PM

Looks like you got 3 requests out of the way in one fail swoop. Oh how I remember the days of living in a cooler climate and not shaving my legs every day. Now that I'm here in CA, I'm shaving at least every other day. CURSES on the gorgeous weather! Adorable tatoo though. I never did get the courage to get one although I still do fantasize about it.

You must have amazing patience to be doing all that endless stockinette. WOW!

Posted by: ~Kristie at March 6, 2007 2:19 PM

A door bell.

A dor a ble.

Adorable.

Mason is a doorbell.

Posted by: Lark at March 6, 2007 2:52 PM

I should have known you'd have a tattoo. ;-)

Your handspun Seraphim is very promising! I'm so glad you went with that pattern. You'll be giving Cheryl a run for her money in the gorgeous-shawl department. ;-)

Posted by: Beth S. at March 6, 2007 3:13 PM

Aw, Mason's toes are adorable! And I had NO IDEA you had a tattoo.

Posted by: Chris at March 6, 2007 4:14 PM

pretty tattoo. I have a dolphin on my ankle but i would never shave for you guys! Not no one! Not no how! ;)

Posted by: Kathleen at March 6, 2007 4:27 PM

Aww the cuteness!! Move over Mason... Mama's got a sweet tattoo! hehe It's funny how many people have tattoos and you wouldn't know unless they told ya. :)

Posted by: Laura at March 6, 2007 4:41 PM

Awwww, you shaved just for us? (Would you tell Norma to do that, please? JK)
Nice tat.

Posted by: Dave Daniels at March 6, 2007 6:01 PM

I can't get my dogs to sit still so I can get good "feet" pictures, so these will keep me happy! Nice tattoo, though I've already seen it... neener, neener...

Posted by: Birdsong at March 6, 2007 8:50 PM

Kitty paws! Kittyyyyyy paaaawwwwwwssss....

Posted by: Anne at March 6, 2007 10:54 PM

dang... looks like I'm falling behind.... must be my tatoo done NOW! I am so totally jealous :-)

Posted by: Teyani at March 6, 2007 11:57 PM

Love the tat!

Posted by: Annie at March 7, 2007 6:21 AM

I definitely vote for your kitty paws. The fuzziness and the mocha color do it.

Posted by: Laurie at March 7, 2007 6:50 AM

Oh, those are truly cute feet, and a pretty cool tattoo. Thanks for shaving first.

Posted by: christine at March 7, 2007 10:29 AM

tasty tootsies! so smushy!

Posted by: jen at March 7, 2007 3:29 PM

cute tootsies!
my tattoo is old and very faded...
