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

Good Karma Farm Crank-in 5th Annual (June 2016) Part Four ~ Japanese Dyeing Technique~ SHIBORI!
Me starting my Shibori Scarf! There are pebble stones wrapped up and tied in with elastics. I joked saying they look like Alpaca Nuts! It stuck...but they turned out to be a beautiful scarf in the end!
Dye pot getting ready. First colour chosen was a Berry shade!
MsB's and Olivia's projects are in the pot!
Oh here are MsB's Alpaca Nuts all dyed and ready to rinse and unwrap!
Here are our scarfs sooking day two as we wanted to try a second colour on them!
Olivia's project tied up with string!
My scarf on line drying after I added colour #2 Black to it. So exciting, so fun to do!
