More work on the socks. ALL of the clothes are a little overwhelming, so I am sorting up the other clothes by bin, closing up and labeling and tossing those beyond hope or any desire of mine to ever wear again. You Understand that this is personal! ![:\](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/side.png "side :\")
This is a great winter project.
I have found about a dozen pair of wool or wool blend socks, so far. I am not bothering to wash them, bc they smell a little "wiffy" (DD's term), but they won't make my feet sneeze, so I will put them into winter rotation.
DH has a great solution for socks with worn heels, and he has done this for years, now. You cut out the heel and part of the toe and make them into under gloves. In severe weather you wear them with your thumbs through the heel and your fingers through the old toes. (Why do I think that he learned this from his mom and everybody that lived through the Great Depression?) This keeps the draft away from your wrists. He also has long arm rabbit gloves, so he is never cold.
Just found the super warm boots online!!!!:
