Niqkita's Sock Journal

The rain finally stopped, but it isn’t warm yet…
Lavender O Basics with lilac slouch socks nestled into comfy boots with a warm coat allowed me to wear shorts without catching a chill. The O Basics aren’t always as thick as I’d like, but they fit so well and are such a great price that I don’t mind layering when I want a little more sock around my feet. And the slouch socks are the perfect layer, with so many colors between the two the options are many.
I’m slowly but surely making progress in getting all the colors shot and added to the site and with this nice weather planned for the next week I’m looking forward to being able to do more of the O Basics outside. O Chevrons are nearly done, I just need to finish editing those, InkLiNed are being done this week too and I managed to get some of the new stuff shot last night, they’ll be added in the coming days…
In other news, I’ve hired someone to be our fulltime office manager/customer service type person, she starts in two weeks. Once she is trained and competently knowledgeable we’ll start actively taking phone orders for those who are not comfortable ordering online or are having trouble placing an order. She will also be a huge help to us in keeping up with the many emails & questions we get which, in time, will free me up to do the things I love doing with more sanity than I’ve had the past several months…
I can hardly wait!

After nearly three years of selling our beloved Sweater socks & leg warmers we are just about out. We sold the last of the leg warmers last month, the last of the natural sweater socks last week and are down to about 5 dozen of the white, the last of the last, expected to last maybe a month, maybe more, maybe less…
We can’t get more because the company we bought these from went out of business years ago and sold us all the stock we could find space for at the time, it’s hard to believe we are down to just one small box of them. They will not be forgotten though and as we get opportunities to buy more & more interesting textures and patterns I’m sure we will eventually get something just like these…

I took (& first posted) this picture nearly three years ago…
shortly after we got the first batch of Allthere toesocks
I’m still amazed by how comfy these toe socks are
even now that they are called Toetoe instead of Allthere
these are the knee high version, which we were only able to get in navy the first time around. I need to take some new pictures so that we have actual photos of the black knee highs, but I didn’t want to delay adding them to the site so I doctored the images I already had. I’ll have to make Phranq pose with me again too…
just for fun.
Best damn toesocks ever!
ankle highs
midcalves
striped knee highs
solid knee highs
(solid knee highs are longer than the striped)
