socks

There are different types of socks on the market; athletic socks, hiking socks, dress socks, house socks, novelty socks, and diabetes socks.


Socks can go to the ankle, calf, knee, or hip. They may be patterned or plain, and made from silk, cotton, wool, and a variety of other materials.

Most socks are knitted to provide flexibility, but they can also be woven or crocheted.

Tube socks, or athletic socks, are the most common type of sock that different age groups wear. They are the most popular because they are east to knit.


Socks that can benefit your health are diabetes socks. If you need to promote healthier circulation, diabetes socks can do that.

You'll find bloggers talking about socks at sites like The Best Socks Blog and Mamas Laundry Talk.
