Cereal Salad Socks

My mother-in-law is an expert at getting the most for her money. Being full-time mom to four kids, she had to be. My husband remembers fondly when his mom would serve “cereal salad” for breakfast, or maybe even dinner. Cereal salad is quite simply a random mix of all the remains of the nearly empty cereal boxes in the pantry. Some days he would have Fruit Loops and Frosted Flakes. Other days it might be a mix of All Bran and Cheerios. You never knew what you were going to get.

It is the same with these socks.

My plan is to use up all the odd remains of sock yarn that have accumulated in my stash over the years.  I am trying to be random in the color choices, and just mix washable wools together and keep the handwash only  wools separate.

I think these socks will be fun and a little silly. All while using up the leftovers. If nothing else, they will keep my feet warm when I shovel the snow this winter.

What do you think? Would you wear them?
