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

8 days...
In my last post I asked, How many days till Spring? The answer is 8 days. Even if it doesn't happen to feel like Spring on March 20th the date of the Spring Equinox, I know I will feel Spring in my heart, as it will not be long off. I glanced at my calendar on my desk, where I sit now typing this blog entry, and realized that our next Market stint will be a couple days into Spring! Yahoo! See you at the Historic Farmers' Market, Saturday, March 22, 2014.
How many days till Spring?
As much as I would love to be sitting on an Adirondack chair right now on a beach, I am not! But I do have two Adirondack chairs sitting on the deck in the snow just waiting for me as I wait for Spring to come. How many days till Spring? Oh well, Adirondack chairs today are serving the good purpose of some awesome photo props instead. And I must admit the colourful socks look really good perched upon them! Wouldn't you agree?

Apologies...Re: website
I just want to give my apologies to all of you to whom also follow our website. We did not notice for a brief period of time, things were not working properly, but seem to be now for your viewing purposes. We use our website as an additional tool to inform our customers of our Market attendances. So it is upsetting to find out it can not be accessed at certain times without us being aware of some difficulties taking place within the website and wix.com. Right now, all is visible to YOU and on track. To avoid any other
uncertainties of market attendances I am going to post a schedule in the next post that can be accessed from this blog as well. Thank you for your cooperation and sorry if the website being inaccessible annoyed you as much as it did me!

More Baby Hats!
Our display rack was in demand of more Baby Hats. Also, we had a special request for two Unisex colourway Baby Hats. MrB cranked out some more baby hats to add to our hat rack, so thought a new photo would be in order too! Outdoor pictures are always nice, especially on a cold,crisp, but sunny day!
