If you look closely you will see that is about 20 different pairs of socks.ย Not one with a match.

Haha ๐ I thought I was so clever, trying to circumvent this problem by getting E 10 pairs of white socks for Christmas…but the socks were smarter, and all 10 pairs disappeared, so I'm still trying to match up pairs every laundry day ๐
With 5 kids, we buy only white socks. We do have the ankle lenth variety and the longer variety, but still much more matches (or at least near matches) that way.
HA! I'll see you your 20 unmatched socks and raise you a baby sock that will never find its match, but I can't bear to throw away. (Remember, James is four). When I clean out the sock basket and try to match pairs there is always the lone baby sock. And back into the basket it goes!
I use to go through this a lot when my kids were smaller. I don't think we've had all that many socks eaten by the dryer…I guess my dryer doesn't like socks. Now watch just because I said that it will start eating them too!
This happens at my house too. My sister in-law suggested that I pin JDaniel's socks together when they go the wash. I think they would figure out a way to unpin themselves.

We have a sock eating dryer too, but it doesn't eat so many socks ๐
Don't you know? Instruction pages from IKEA draw spare parts naturally; some of those socks probably started out at your neighbors' houses!
Ha! We have the same problem here.

That's a lot of socks. I probably have that many unmatched, but they are spread throughout drawers.
I love all the colors and designs!

Jeff looks thrilled ๐
What a perfect collection to make some fun sock puppets.
That's the funniest picture I've seen in some time. ๐
I think I'm going to buy socks in only one color from now on.

That is so hilarious!! We are really big on plain white socks. No matching required.
