And we love to knit.
Now we can have our cake and eat it too. Kristi Porter recently published Knitting for Dogs. Don't be freaked by the title - it does not mean knitting for dogs (dogs learning to knit) but rather irresistible patterns for your favorite pup.

Most customer reviews were very positive. One customer notes that the book is unque in that it includes a "wide range of pattern sizes, plus information on how to custom-fit items to your dog."
According to Kristi's blog, Knitting for Dogs ranks as the 34th most popular knitting book sold on Amazon (in terms of sales) out of 1,394 knitting books offered. You can also see several pictures of dogs with their knitted fashions on her blog. Lots of fun.
