Busy making Wee Woolies (washable wool) an Wee Woolies Lite (washable wool/cotton blend)

I think they wear the same - but the cotton/wool blend have summery look paler and not very bright - I will keep making both as some people like a bit of cotton feel in the socks

What with all the social distancing going on  decided I need to work on my web presence a bit more - In the Fall and Winter (ideal sock weather) I am too busy at the market to work on selling on line but.... not sure what fall will bring this year . Started slow with just a taste of my footies and short socks and will see how it goes.   You can find me at my Etsy shop BJsHandcrankedsocksBjs Handcranked Socks

Next week  I will add some wee woolies and spruce up the page abit but It is a start

Have both footies and ankle socks  in cotton , wool (got to love the wick-ability) and wool cotton blend.  I had fun designing the perfect footie - a bit deeper in the heel and tab to fight the tendency of this type sock falling down

covid is changing  the selling of socks

Covicd has certainly changed everyone's  life.  Most of my sock selling happens at a Farmers Market  here in Tucson.  The St Philps market like all farmers markets around the world closed suddenly the 2nd week in March.  I know by fall it will be up and running again when my customers need socks.  But it will be different. 

So I am going to try to keep posting weekly with what I am doing and where you can get socks in the meantime - I am making socks daily to build up my winter inventory and am going to update the photos of the socks  every week - I am going to post  a couple pair of each size in each category  to up the anticipation of  of next years fun inventory -

I will be reopening my Etsy shop shortly and will  post it here when I do

So I am off to work on socks  and you all stay safe
