Bresciani
-
- Couldn’t help taking this; classic tape measure and pins. Had to be B&W.
-
- Rise of the machines.
-
- Weirdly reminds me of a balaclava, but a fun one.
-
- Different colour yarn, for all the colours used in the socks, in the repair process.
-
- Hand repairing damaged socks
-
- Different colour ribbons for different sizes.
Never wondered how socks are made? Me neither, but have a new found appreciation for them after visiting Bresciani.
