Description:

Thanks to @Moony for giving me the go to post a USA-only Holiday Sock Swap. If you're interested, she has posted this same swap for international swapping. Just fyi, I mostly cut and pasted what she posted for her swap.

Since the weather is starting to cool off for many of us, I am making a sock swap. But not just any swap...a Halloween, Thanksgiving, AND Christmas sock swap!

For this swap you will have one partner and you will send them one brand new pair of Halloween socks, one brand new pair of Thanksgiving socks, OR one brand new pair of Christmas socks. To clarify, you will be sending TWO pairs of socks, your choice of TWO different holidays. (In other words, if you choose Halloween, you must ALSO choose EITHER Christmas or Thanksgiving; no sending two pairs of one holiday.) Shipping shouldn't be too much for soft socks.

Please list what size and style you like, such as standard adult size, knee length, etc. Please let your partner choose which holidays to choose, and also please keep in mind that they may have a difficult time finding your preference. (I have yet to find long Thanksgiving socks, but I've found plenty ankle and regular length socks for that holiday.) Also, please specify if handmade are okay with you.

No newbies, but since send date is far enough away, you should have enough time to get a couple of swaps under your belt. No ratings under 4.85. Also, no 1s or recent 3s.

At what point are you no longer a newbie? I really like this idea.

BrandiAM 08/24/2010 #

@mylittleangel2007 In my opinion, a newbie is someone with less than five swaps, or no package swaps. I took a quick peek at your profile, and you look fine, so go ahead and join. :)

Since I mentioned it, I thought I'd post about my preferences.

Franky, I like almost all socks. I'll be happy with just about anything I receive. That said, I do prefer longer socks, but it's not a necessity in making me happy. :)

I wear a women's size 8, but again, any size will usually do. I've found that my feet fit just about any adult size women's socks. They're stretchy, after all.

If you knit or crochet, handmade is also fine!

I wear the regular adult size. I don't wear knee length. I love Fall, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

I like all Fall halloween thanksgiving and Christmas, I don't like demons or scary. I prefer long socks but either work and I wear a womens size 9 shoe, so standard adult socks are great! I like all colors

eschiwal 09/14/2010 #

also handmade is lovely also

No toe socks please as I have a birth defect that has left me without all of my toes. I wear a size 8 shoe so womens size socks are fine. I prefer shorter socks as I haven't worn knee socks since grade school & then I rolled them down (which upset my mom:) but really will be happy with any length.

nlgrudis 09/14/2010 #

I wear a size 10 shoe, so large or extra large would be best. I normally wear shorter socks (ankle high or shorter). Toe socks are good also.

scarlett1110, my daughter has two webbed toes on one foot, so she splits two toes of that sock & sews those two into one double toe.

I wear a size 8 1/2 shoe...I struggle with very cold extremities so the softer, warmer, cuddlier the better :) Any seasons are fine...my daycare kids love the kinds with eyes, bells or any attachments that are fun!!! But really anything is fine, love surprises and am not picky at all :)

Hilda 09/20/2010 #

any kind any lenght will do

jenchaos77 09/20/2010 #

no toe socks pls. :D i wear a size 10-11 womans shoe, so size large or standard, or 9-11 will do fine. i love halloween and x-mas :D

is anyone else having a hard time finding any other season of socks besides halloween?? I figured it would be easy.....still looking!!!

BrandiAM 10/13/2010 #

@MommyMae Maybe my city is Christmas crazy, but Christmas socks have been on sale for a couple of weeks now. Also, I had seen Thanksgiving socks awhile back. They were really cute, but unfortunately, I forgot where I saw them.
