No real explanation for this, other than my family is incredibly geeky. My wife's new hobby is hand knit socks, and well, she's trying real hard to make them so we'd want to wear them.

The Chaos symbol is stitched so that it's raised up, and outlined. Apparently she has a pattern for creating secret pockets on the outside of socks, and contemplated that as well, but opted out of it since these were her first set of socks with a complicated pattern.

My oldest son plans on wearing them to every tournament from here on out from the sounds of it..

Welcome to Dakka. Those are unbearably awesome. Now she needs to make Nurgle ones that you never wash to get a realistic effect.

**Hollismason**

That's incredibly cute and excellent.

**Mad Rabbit**

That is excellent.

40k themed socks are a solid addition to any outfit.

**Deff Dread red Edition**

Welcome,your socks just broke my "that is fething awesome" scale,lol.

**porkuslime**

does your wife do requests? I think =I= socks would be fab!

**grizgrin**

Wow. That's just a bit nuts. In a good way.

**InyokaMadoda**

Love 'em.

**krazynadechukr2**

What else do the little voices tell you to do?

**Plebeian**

The little voices tell us lots of things.. Personally, I want brain control Cthulhu hats, but she's too chicken to do it.

The =I= socks are an AWESOME idea. I play Gray Knights with an Inquisition bent and lots of =I= stormtroopers, and we're also playing Dark Heresy, so yeah.. Think those might have to be next.

**grizgrin**

I would love ot see a brain control Cthulhu hat.

**RiTides**

Wow! Your wife is so cool

And the craftsmanship is excellent, too!

Making the same kind of raise symbol as a pocket would just be incredible!

**dirkthe1**

so does the cry now go;
"socks for the blood god, wooly hats for the skull throne of khorne"

Until you actually wear them out of the house.

Love them!

My ex stitched me a chaos bookmark, with all the chaos symbols (and made extra evil by having a white background and frilly edges), but socks are a winning option

**Sgt Rinehart**

Those socks rock!

**Chimera_Calvin**

Work of utter genius!!!!

Love 'em!!

(If your wife needs to make some extra cash get her to do requests. I guarantee they wil sell.)

**Nobody_Holme**

...Do want.

Good find in that wife, I must say >.>

**Gavin Thorne**

As a part-time knitter, I commend your wife on both her skill and taste, very nice!

Fixed it for you to appease Poppa Nurgle.

I'm all for black and silver =I= socks.
