These are the actual, unpressed, unworn version of my husband Vic’s new (Pace) denim blue, twin rib socks. He isn’t home, so I took their picture without him; they’re too large for me. Socks protect our feet from cold, from heat, from blisters and abrasions, from infections and meanbad fungus, and for us narrow-footed types, fill in the space in our shoes. Hand-knit socks make us feel loved. They can be knit to fit exactly right, over our ankles and every part of our foot. Hurray for socks and for those who knit them.
Socks work tirelessly and unseen while we go about our busy lives. Here is another thing to do in blue, or any color, socks.

Cute picture. You all have the most beautiful backyard. The socks are lovely, too, and look oh-so-soft.
