Bought some new Merino wool socks, they’re a little thicker than I’d like, but they are very very comfy! The brand had some other styles that looked thinner, so I might give those a go. Also very very happy that they are 100% Australia-made and manufactured.

Ah Merino, so comfortable, yet so tasty to those f-ing moths. I’ve lost so much clothing recently, daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

I got some of these once, washed them in hot water and they shrank to palm size and were unwearable. They were expensive too. Check the label for washing instructions and if none, wash these in cold water!

As someone who tries to only wear natural fibres, I have made this mistake an embarrassing amount of times.

I’ve heard possum socks are amazing, but the shrink factor is serious
