thanks foggy knitter

after nearly a month of knitting these knee high socks from trekking wool, when i walked around the house, well they fell down.mmmmmmm
after putting my dilemma in writing, the wonderful foggy knitter (sorry i still cant do the linky thing, however shes on the about me page in the list of blogs i read), suggested i use some shirring elastic to hold them up. this afternoon i raided the sewing box, threaded some elastic around the top of the socks, and wallah. problem solved, thanks foggy. x
