Here is a picture of my Cloggers with holes drilled in them!
Note MrB suggested not to drill them all around the whole front as it may weaken them so he did them mainly on each side and one at the end. These are relatively small but that is how KnittersDream had them. I will try them and then I can always make them bigger if I so desire! Hope they work out fine!

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

Scored these!
I scored these in my last travels when in Maine. I got them from a very cool shop called Coyote Moon. The Butterflies are made of feathers and are hand-painted. I thought they were a wonderful score and cheap! I plan to put them on my Show and Sell Market Rack as they have little magnets on the back. I think they will look great on my rack with our socks. They will be nice little summer time decorations for July 27th and also for our once a month appearance in August (If our August date of 24th is still a go....because it will be ten days prior to when my grandson is due to arrive!) I love these Butterflies, don't you? MsB from Socks Made On 88

I'm back..what's new?
I am back! We had a wonderful pleasure trip to Newfoundland. Upon our return I had a package waiting for me. Before we left I had ordered some clear garden sloggers. I have been wanting a pair of a long time. I happened to find some on the KnittersDream website and so I took the plunge and ordered them. That's what's new this month in Socks Made On 88. I plan to wear them to the our upcoming market on Saturday, July 27th. But in the meantime here a sneak peak photo of the my new sloggers!

Stock Piling for Fall and Christmas!
Some of you stash yarn! Not us! We are stashing or stock piling sock pairs for our markets in the fall and at Christmas. MrB had a couple good crankin' days and now he is very much looking forward to a break! Our next market at Historic Farmers' Market will be Saturday, July 27, 2013. Now some time to go off and play and not work!

Monster "B"
This monster body, arms and legs were created by MrB on the circular sock machine. I used left over felt for his Eye and his initial crest. His initial " B " stands for "Brigadier." He will be our new machine mascot at upcoming markets and crank-ins that we attend. Isn't he just so cool and cute too?
