Superbasics
Jul. 10th, 2007 12:40 pmYesterday hubby and I took some photos of the fairly new Superbasics from Sock Dreams. I'm going to make a review of them for the Sock Journal, but probably not for a couple of days, I need time to write. This is one of the photos that won't be used then; since it shows the whole me (and my balcony) and not just the socks.

I like them a lot. They're cotton and they're wide enough not to cause a dent and they reach to mid thigh now that I have washed them in hot water. They were maybe 2" longer before washing and I guess you could keep that length by only washing them in cold or warm water. But the cotton fibre needs 60 C water to get clean so that's what I use. I don't tumble drye them though and always stretch them when wet.
