Easy Knit Sock Patterns

If you never take up knitting, you'll never knit socks, thus never hear the common refrain, "You know, they sell socks for two bucks at Wal-Mart." If you never knit socks on dpns, you'll never suffer the anguish of dropping one on a bus or subway where it rolls into a gutter or fourth dimension from which it can't be retrieved.

Cartoons and sitcoms depict caricatures of abuse, in which residents are forced to knit socks for long hours with no breaks for prune juice.
