If you're coming to Cedar Creek, drop by Sutler Row and say "Hey!"
I've got hats, tams and a new shipment of handwoven scarves just in time for the Fall and Winter events. Scarves are now available in navy, red, brown, gray and light blue.
I'm currently taking orders for 30 different documented socks, and will have examples for you to examine, including:
1. Federal Issue Stockings -- Made to the Quartermaster's Specifications, 10 million pair issued
2. Confederate Echoes of Glory stocks -- Blue and white with cables in the ribbing
3. 1861 U.S. Sanitary Commission sock -- General Winfield Scott endorsed these to encourage patriotic Northern women to knit them.
4. The AOT sock -- From the Macon, Georgia Daily Telegraph & Confedearate
5. Mrs. General Robert E. Lee's sock - From a surviving original in the Museum of the Confederacy
6. "Flags" sock - A pair of these were presented to President Lincoln. Has Old Glory knit into the ribbing, and the Confederate First National on the bottom of the foot.
Looking forward to greeting old friends and making new ones,
