Niqkita's Sock Journal

I brought in the striped knee high toesocks by request…
unfortunately we got a wonky batch and they got holes after just one wearing and washing so I sent them all back to the supplier. Now they have sent us a (hopefully) better batch. Today I wore this pair, took some pictures then tossed them in the wash. After going through the dryer I got them out and gave them a good examination. They do look better, a few loose threads near the stripe switchover spot, but they don’t unravel into holes like the bad ones did. Who knew stripes were prone to little thready issues? Now for the cool things about these, they are knee high and they stay up well, their tops are finished on the inside and can be folded over for a nice cuff, the toes stayed in place fairly well and the stripes go all the way down the feet. Toesocks are sooooo comfy too! So these are once again available to buy.
Here’s an excerpt from a happy toesock letter I got yesterday…
So I wore the toe socks all day at work today and had very happy feet. My big toes tend to get smooshed in my shoes and by the end of the day smooshed toes are hurting. It felt like these socks helped to prevent toe-smoosh together, and that means very very happy toes. They are also very lightweight. It felt like I was floating on air (inside my boots!) And surprisingly they kept my feet very dry even inside my boots and when I was sweating like I have sweat before.
