Yesterday, while at the market, we had the pleasant surprise of MrB's son and his GF drop in to pay us a visit. While he was there to show off his new camera and brush up on his photography skills he took this photo of our Circular Sock Machine, Brigadier 88. 88 and MrB were hard at work, demonstrating the unique art of sock- making to the The Historic Farmers' Market customers and passersby.
There are not too many people who do pass by and don't turn their head to take a closer glimpse or ask questions! The best part is that both MrB and Brigadier 88 like all the attention!
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
