Worldwide Tube Sock Shortage

So when a post on the Rockin' Sock Club blog said we should bring "a tube sock or even a pair" as part of our Sock Camp homework, the question of "why?" wasn't the first one to cross my mind. (Actually, it's sometimes best not to ask questions like that at all...)

The first question was, "when will I have time to get to the store to buy tube socks?" The answer was, yesterday. Unfortunately, there is no joy in Mudville, as there are crew socks and low-cut socks and knee-highs and pom-poms and no-seam and ladybug and polka dot and tennis and striped and wick-away socks... no tube socks. Target, Mervyn's, Long's, Walgreen's, Payless Shoe Source. No, no, no, no, no. I see them online, but not in stores.

D suggested a sporting goods store, the other D suggested the dollar store or dd's discounts. If all else fails, I can knit one. Hey... maybe that's Tina's intent... we all should knit one! Damn.
