This image was a winner in our Facebook Sock Collection contest.
Some people were confused when I said I wanted to see collections heavy on Sock Dreams socks, thinking I wanted to see their collection of heavy socks… but Calico got it and was well prepared! This is a collection heavy with socks from Sock Dreams… well done Calico!!!

I enjoyed the rolled socks, the way the organizer mimics argyle and that only the socks & garters are in color. Thanks Holly!!!

This image won an honorable mention in our Facebook Sock Collection contest. Charlotte posts a lot of fun pictures of her favorite socks, so even though this is not a collection of socks in itself, it is a nice little collection of cats. And folks, if you haven’t grabbed a pair of these Chat Noirs from Sock It To Me you better do it soon because when we run out we can’t get more til SITM restocks, and that may not be til March!

The above photo, submitted by Sock Dreams Fan Jessica on Facebook inspired a contest to celebrate our new high of 4000+ fans on Facebook…
If you are on Facebook and aren’t already a fan head on over and become a fan.
All fans are welcome & encouraged to submit images of your Sock Dreams heavy Sock Collections for a chance to win something fun chosen by me and several of my closest friends & family here at SDHQ. No, the socks themselves do not have to be heavy, but your collection should be heavy on socks you got from us. Creativity & quality and that certain something that makes us smile is what we’re looking for, they don’t have to be studio quality or fancy or anything, but they should be in focus and without unnecessary clutter in the background, why, we’ll even consider shots that aren’t actually a collection, though that is the goal this time.
We’ve chosen this first shot as a winner and are seeking three more by Friday…
We’ll announce our winners this weekend!
Good luck and may the socks be with you.

Go Forward into the night
Bravely
Boldly
Beautifully
Don’t look back
you’ll only see us waving and crying.

Remember us as we remember you
Brave
Bold
Beautiful
Gone into the night
Like the wind passing by us in a storm.
