Second, When it comes time to wash, close the mesh bag and place it into your washing machine. This way, you&#8217;ll ensure that all your socks are being washed together and have no chance of escaping lol. Note: this is a very effective system for those little extra-sneaky baby socks.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:courier new,courier,monospace;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">2) Streamline- buy lots and lots of the same color socks.
