First, let me make one thing clear: I have no particular spiritual or psychic abilities. At MEG KNITTING, we have been offering sock repairs since the very beginning. Being made of 100% wool, our socks are susceptible to friction and wear, while the upper part (the leg) tends to hold up much better. So the idea is simple: by repairing them as needed, we can help you enjoy your favorite socks for as long as possible. But that’s not what I want to talk about today. I want to talk about the socks that are sent to us for repair. For those who work with their hands and come into physical contact with other people, this may be a familiar experience in one way or another. Every now and then, I sense something vaguely dark (even sinister, perhaps?) in socks that have been worn for a long time. We ask our customers to wash their socks before sending them in, but even so, there are times when a pair arrives carrying a certain unpleasant presence. When that happens, I simply repair the sock...
