It's really really hard to find yellow tights!

[verabee]

I have kind of a thing for tights and knee socks. I keep forgetting how many I've bought already and Sock-Dreams.com is based out of Portland, so consequently I am at the point of needing a dedicated dresser for it all. And I'm more or less okay with that. But this site is going to be a real problem in the near future.

Maybe some other people would enjoy having this problem with me and then I wouldn't feel too bad.

I'm a guy, so I don't rock the tights, but most of my socks are knee socks. I love them. :D

Last time I needed yellow tights (Halloween long past), I just used a pair of white ones and some RIT dye. Did the job!

Nice!

I just bought some socks from Naked City the other week. A little pricey but they're good quality. I'm sure you've pillaged those already.

I was there pretty recently, but I only bought socks for other people. What do your socks look like? Are they totally sweet?

I have these black and brown polka-dotty ones which are my favorite, a bright orange pair, and an argyle pair. My roommate has like everything from there, obviously, and she's got these knitted yellow tights I really want.

Man, I also want new winter boots.

...All these things I shouldn't be thinking about!

I'm going to be having this problem with you, probably.

No one will coughSLUT you ever again!

Unless you're wearing the fishnet minidress.

Vera,

I own nine pairs of stripey socks.

This is not counting the other assorted crazy socks.

It is becoming dangerous.

I have more than you (just knee socks, not counting regular). I'm counting them up in my head and I keep going, "oh, yeah, I forgot about the greeeen ones..." so I'm just going to stop trying to count.

Ahhhh I love knee highs and tights! That site is awesome, I can never find tights in the colors I want. Thanks for the link

I'm so doomed. Yeah, sign me up for the problem-having.

I'm moving to Portland in a few weeks. Should I start acquiring decidedly un-masculine socks? ♥

My secret weakness is a lady wearing those super-high rainbow socks that have the individual toes.

I'm just a friendly lurker... but in case you were still on the hunt for yellow tights, you might try alloy.com. They have a set of three (red, blue, yellow) for less than a pair on the site you linked (quality aside). As someone who's also nearing the point of having a dedicated dresser, I thought you'd like to know. :)

Oh man... that's a pretty good deal. I will think on it. I'm kind of big on quality. But they look okay.

Geeze, I should go give some money to charity or something...

yeah, I've been wearing a lot of tights this season. I'm actually a little bit comforted whenever Sock Dreams is sold out - at least other people want that shit more than me. Possibly you.

Still cheaper than pants.. right?

this was me

probably me.

[verabee.livejournal.com]

Colder than pants, too. :(

Hi, my name is Nikki, and I am a sock dreams addict.

It gets worse when you have to touch all the expensive, bunny fluff, bright merchandise all the time.

Target, weirdly enough, has some killer teal/turquoise opaque tights. They have a pretty good section actually. As does Freddy's. Clearly, I got into the industry at the right time.

i'm a tights-addict, too. i've got at least 20 colors! o_O

i love socks so much that i've started making sock creatures to excuse more purchases of socks!
my favourites are stripeys and hand-knitted wool socks. in the winter, something i often delight in is wearing a pair of wools over the stripeys (n_n)

You might enjoythis pattern (http://www.knitting-crochet.com/messto.html) that I found one day but have yet to attempt... in any case your knitting skillz are far superior to mine so you will probably have better luck than I will, lol.
