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

Adding to MrB's box of tricks!
Saturday just past, was one of our market days. Sunday and Monday are reflection days. Some days are good days, some days are not so good days. Some days MrB has good knitting days, some days he does not. Some days I (MsB) have good kitchenering days and some days I do not. Saturday, MrB had an excellent cranking day at the market. He cranked out all the balls of yarn he took to work on. Oh Oh, it's still early now what to do? Make tubes was the answer, but in the future, he will come up with another idea. His idea is to make sure he has his baby hat pattern in his box of tricks so that he can make some from the left over yarn. We sold some baby hats at the market on Saturday so some more were made yesterday to replenish the stock on hand. The middle more colourful baby hat is made by using two strands of yarn making it 8 ply. I love how the two strands has created a new colour creation.
