Container for storing small items

Old socks (as long as they don't have holes) are a great way to store small items.

An example would be nails, which are often used in the country. If you put them in a sock, they will definitely not get lost.

Container for growing seedlings

Old socks can also act as “bags” for soil.

In this case, the product will become an alternative to milk packaging.

Ropes

Socks are easy to cut, so you can make a lot of strings out of them.

The devices will be used for tying up tomatoes, cucumbers and other garden crops.

Hand retainer

If you cut off the bottom part of the socks, you will get an excellent device for holding a smartphone.

The retainer should be put on the hand, and then put the phone in the resulting "pocket". As a result, the summer resident will definitely not miss an important call. In addition, a person will be able to listen to favorite songs during gardening.

The socks can easily be turned into knee pads. As a result, it will be much easier for the gardener to weed and water the plants.
