This one is pretty simple. Socks get lost, stick to clothes in the dryer, and just are a pain. My solution.....wash all socks in lingerie bags. I actually do this for a lot of small items. This way they are contained and it is as easy as dumping the bag and matching the socks. This is really helpful with baby socks, however I even do it with my husband's socks. I spend 5.00 at Bed, Bath, and Beyond and bring a little organization to my laundry. Happy washing.
