My Sock Dreams order arrived yesterday! That was faster than I expected. Now I'm ready for it to be fall. Right now.
I should have guessed the long socks would be much longer on me than on the model on the website. The "thigh-high" socks, if I hold one up next to me, reaches almost to my armpit, and the "over the knee" socks come up to mid-thigh on me. The cotton socks are pretty baggy, especially around the ankles, and the feet are much too big for my feet. I'll probably wear them at home (or maybe under boots). The nylon socks, though they don't have that lovely natural fiber feel, fit much better. It will be great to wear them over tights in winter.
Unfortunately it's too warm to wear my new socks during the day right now, but I can wear them in the evening. They also sell tube socks (no foot sewn in). I bet those will fit better around the foot and ankle.

Wow, those look great!
I can't wait until it's cold enough again to wear my stripey tights.
