Baby, It's Cold Outside
Laundry day at the knit-sock-sweatshop
This woman I used to work with (the Unhappy Woman) used to mock me (with most people it could have been considered teasing, but I didn’t like her and she didn’t like me, so we’ll call it like it was) about my $1,000,000 socks.
Now a $1,000,000 might be a bit off the mark, but realistically? Sixteen pair at an average cost of $20 (a very conservative estimate, as those of you who regularly purchase sock yarn can attest) a pair = $320. On socks. And that’s not including labor, needles, stitch markers, knitting bags and the various accouterments that make this hobby so enjoyable.
I am blessed indeed.
