Day 222 / 365
Since the dawn of me doing my own laundry back when I was ten, at least one sock seems to disappear with nearly every wash I’ve done. Over time this loss of sock became so frequent that I created a special paper bag complete with images of sad solo socks on it called ‘The Lost Socks Club’ in hopes that at least some of them would one day be reunited.
I’m told by those more patient than I, that the failsafe solution for lack of sock loss is pinning your socks together before you stick them in the wash – which I’ve tried – and though it lowers the frequency of the missing sock scenario, I more often than not forget to do it and find myself on my hands and knees trying to find a black hole to dig the lost sock out of.
They’ve recently launched a Kickstarter http://kck.st/2dm01uX to get the children’s version of their SOLO socks going too, so you can keep the raggamuffins in your life in the good books too. The Kickstarter (which only goes for 15 more days!) includes a giveback which lets you try the socks out for yourself while you support them, or you can get started on buying your holiday gift for any loved ones with lost sock syndrome.
