All socks should be paired with a Sock Sorter at all times, except, of course, whilst being worn! Put all clean socks into Sock Sorters straight away.
Remember to use different coloured Sock Sorters for each year/dormitory/family member, for ease of identification.
Please try a few Sock Sorters through your washing process to ensure that they are suitable for your machines.
When removing dirty socks, take the top (cleanest) end of the socks and flatten them together to make a corner (as the left hand pair of socks below). Squeeze the corner through the Sock Sorter and pull through (as the right hand pair of socks).
Thick games socks do not have to be pulled all the way through and will remain paired throughout wahsing and drying if only partially inserted.
