They disappear there every time they leave. We don’t know exactly where they are going. Perhaps there is a vortex within the dryer’s whirlpool of hot air and tumbling clothes? Perhaps there’s a strange creature, kraken-like, that lives in the washer and eats the left one. It doesn’t matter what the reason, it is a fact of life that there will always be a pile of left socks missing. National Lost Sock Memorial Day allows you to remember your beloved foot warmers wherever they might be.

History? History is essential. The history of knitted footwear must be traced back to the moment that the first pair was made. Og lost the socks that his cavemother-in law had knitted for him. Two days later, National Lost Sock Memorial Day was established.

Piloi, which were socks made from matted animal hair in the 8th century, was known as piloi. Perhaps the animals that made them socks were jealous of the way their hair looked wrapped around their feet. Their ancestors have been taking the socks away in the darkness of the night since then. The Romans were the first people to use woven fabric to protect their little toes about 1,000 years later. However, each time they took their clothes down to the river for washing, one fell off.

Socks are unique among all our accessories in that they can be used alone or with a companion. You would look silly wearing just one sock. Your other foot would also be cold. Lost socks can be a serious problem. Scientists have done studies to determine how many socks get lost each year. They found that as many as 1.3 socks disappear each month. This rate means that there are many lost socks in another dimension holding missing sock memorials.

Sleep in socks to ensure you have a pair of matching socks every night.

The idea of the ‘lost sock‚Äô is so common that Terry Pratchett’s Disc World series contains a character called the Eater Of Socks. This creature was born out of an excessive amount of belief.

Numerous children’s books have been written about the disappearing socks. For example, Land of the Lost Socks, by Neira Williams, which shows a pair of socks fighting against sock-bullies in order to get their socks back together. Or The Sock Fairy, by Bobbie Hinman, Kristi Bridgeman, which tells the story of a mischievous, magical creature responsible for the disappearance of individual socks and occasionally causing toe holes. Sock holes can’t be caused by wear and tear or the odd long toenail. It must be that darn sock fairy!

There have been comics depicting the missing socks monster. They are illustrated eating, hoarding and even wearing all the socks they lose around the world. Another comic shows large missing socks posters at laundromats and people setting up surveillance cameras in an effort to catch the culprit.

National Lost Sock Memorial Day allows you to reflect on the ultimate destination for the world’s lost socks.

You can’t beat them – only wear solid white socks or black socks. That way, if one of yours is lost, you’ll still have the matching pair in your drawer, even if it wasn’t its twin.

You might find them there with a few dust bunnies or lint to keep warm.

No matter what you do, you must not leave one sock unattended at night. That’s asking for a sock monster, and you will be reliving the loss of your beloved sock tomorrow.
