I recently began a new homemaker project -
and one that I never thought I would do.
I have recently taken to darning socks.
Hubby's work boots appear to "eat" socks, especially at his big toe.
For a while, the bad ones just became cleaning rags.
They were perfect for staining wood or applying polyurethane.
But, then it seemed like I was making sock purchases too often.
Hubby suggested darning the socks.
How hard could it be?
Turns out,
it is not hard.
With a doll head to keep the hole spread and some thicker thread,
the holes were soon fixed.
While it won't be my favorite pastime,
and no one will show my work as a model,
it is prolonging the life of a few socks.
