Dear Sock,
I really can’t thank you enough. Even if you had the capacity for human thought and emotion, I don’t think you could fully appreciate how much you’ve given me (today, especially). I still have hair because of you. I would have pulled it all out, had you not been in my backpack waiting for me.
As you are unaware (because you’re a sock - really only half a sock), today is the closing date for my first house purchase, and things are not going entirely smoothly. The first thing I did when I got off the phone with the lawyer’s office? I took you out and knit two of the most satisfying rounds of my life. Then I cried. Now I have a headache, but the next several rows that I knit were utter bliss.
What would I do without you, sock? I suppose I would knit something else, but I don’t think there’s anything more therapeutic than setting up an instep and starting to decrease. I only hope that someday I’ll repay the favour by giving you a happy home on a grateful pair of feet.

Love Always,
