This is close to home.

My grandaunts Peggy & Hatty made socks. When I was around 8-9 I received a pair of hand-me-downs, they already had some patching spots. They were heavy-duty wool work socks appropriate for farm work and hunting boots, but that did not faze me, I wore them in my Keds Hi-Tops. I kept them long after they stopped fitting..
