Having just bought my first pair of wellies since about the winter of
62/3 - or whatever was the really snowy one - I still haven't worked out
how to prevent my socks from ending up in the toes of the wellies. I've
tried pinning the socks to my trousers, but they still manage to slump down
and try to take the trousers with them!

How do the experts manage the trick?


Hand-knitted socks, long enough to come past the curve of the calf, stay
in place very well. Assuming, of course, that the knitter sized them
correctly.
