Good weather for socks

This is why we do what we do. If we lived in the tropics I think we'd probably make ice cream for a living. The forecast for this week is nothing over 12.C. and it's only June. A big bad winter coming. I don't think we'll be the only ones not taking our warm woolly socks off.

Loving and hating winter!

Snow blanketed Hobart last night, Mt Wellington is pretty as a picture. It's a good time to be selling warm woolly socks, and while business is brisk, the working conditions are not too inviting. It was hard to tear ourselves away from the roaring fire this morning to head down to the Antarctic-like workshop. We delayed the inevitable, with bookwork, phone calls and numerous other excuses, as long as we could. We rugged up, putting on almost every product we make....pure wool socks, arm and leg warmers and head warmers. Lucky for us, we don't just say they're warm as a sales pitch, they really are warm!
