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

Regia Yarn ~ Eskimo/Inuit Colour
This pair of socks is from Regia yarn. First time for MrB using it, very nice yarn, and very nice pattern of the socks but I do not like the colour name! You will notice that have added /Inuit to it. It was the Canadian Constitution Act of 1982 in which we recognized Inuit as the distinctive group of Aborginal people in Canada. The colour is obviously to depict the North! I wanted a picture to symbolize the north as well and here we do not even have any snow to gather for a picture, so ice cubes were the next best thing! I really really like these socks! They may be my # 1 pick so far!
