  • Announcement: Karin Timour at Woodbury, CT this weekend

    Come see me at Woodbury this weekend!

    In stock:

    1. Handwoven wool scarves (5 feet long and 10 inches wide) in red, brown, navy blue and emerald green

    2. Sleeping hats and tams

    I will have the Sock Line up so that you can examine and compare different socks before placing an order. Among the socks on display are:

    * The Federal Issue Stocking -- Made to the QM specifications, as described in The Columbia Rifles Research Compendium, 2nd Edition
    * Mrs. Robert E. Lee's sock -- Reproduction of the original in the Museum of the Confederacy
    * 1861 United States Sanitary Commission sock -- Directions were printed in the Hartford Courant, and many other newspapers in 1861, endorsed by General Winfield Scott
    * Echoes of Glory/Museum of the Confederacy sock -- Cream and blue sock from Echoes of Glory. Original in the Museum of the Confederacy
    * "Flags" sock from "Antiques Roadshow" -- Confederate First National under the foot, Old Glory flying on the leg, a pair of these were presented to Abraham Lincoln, and were appraised on "Antiques Roadshow"
    * Army of Tennessee Sock -- Made following the directions printed in the Macon, Georgia Daily Confederate and Telegraph 1864
    * 1865 United States Sanitary Commission sock -- Patten printed in the 1865 Sanitary Commission newsletter

    Stop by and chat for a while, even if you have no intention of buying knitwear. It's always good to see old friends, and meet new ones.

    Karin-- Have you got the left-footed socks I sent you for repairs ready yet?

    Right footed people need to know....

      Dear Don:

      Some of your socks are done, the rest I'll work on at Woodbury this weekend. I get a real kick out of seeing the interesting holes you send me. At the family reunion this past weekend I was given several second-hand darning eggs of various shapes and sizes. Will be trying them out for the first time on your socks.

      Too much fun,

          Dear Rob:

          You're entirely welcome -- I had a blast at Old Bethpage, and the 119th New York couldn't have made me feel more at home. Thank you for all your support.

          Sincerely,
