Hand-Knitted Socks Day

Every German grandmother has a drawer. In that drawer: socks knitted during winter evenings, while television played, while conversation happened, while hands kept moving. The stitches are tight. The wool is local. The gift says "I spent time on you" in a language that cannot be faked.
