Our CSM venture- Socks Made On 88

MrB is the cranker in this venture. He creates hand-cranked knitted wool socks made on our Circular Sock Machine, we call Brigadier 88! It is the #88th Erlbacher Gearhart Knitting Machine newly made. Me, MsB is the cranky assistant (not) :-) that runs the business side of things,networking,doing the sock tags,yarn ordering,kitchener stitching and more. MrB is studious,and is constantly cranking out new pairs of SOCKS Made on 88! Our story and my blog unfolds here... it all began Jan.3, 2012

I call these Down Home Country Stripes

Oh MrB was thinking when he made this pair a size7, because that means I can not snatch them for myself, as I need a size 8! I call these Down Home Country Stripes, my colours, absolutely! And since I was a country-gal, born and raised on a small farm in Saskatchewan you can never take the Country out of this gal. I have not lived on a farm since I left as a girl at 18 years of age, but the memories I have of that time are never forgotten. I am so thankful that we have another ball of this yarn.....as I am going to stick my name on it! Do you think that will give MrB a hint? Well my birthday is coming up in April, hint hint. My Ole Down Home Country Scarecrow thinks these are pretty great also.
