Socks Made On 88

December is upon us and Socks Made On 88!
Our last market was November 19th! It was nice to coast this last week, especially having company from Montreal and enjoying some early Christmas gift giving, and entertaining.
MrB says it's always so nice to see someone open a package and receive socks and have an expression of joy on their face. Yes, you got it, people can get excited even if they receive socks as a gift. Even better that the socks were made by us! She will be sporting, and showing off her sock pairs to her many Montreal friends with envy. And we will be cherishing the hugs we got in return.
Also the son, who already has many sock pairs, still gets to add to his collection of many. His drawer must be getting mightly full. I wonder how he sorts them? Do you think he sorts them by colour or style? My bet is that they just exist no sorting at all! But we know he loves them all, and that is all that matters.
Socks Made On 88 will be at the market tomorrow! Come buy some sock pairs, and you too can give some joy to a special someone by giving them some Hugs for their feet for Christmas!
And if you can not be present at tomorrow's market, we will be there again on Dec 17th and Dec 24th also!
