Down my bra.

I think that all the socks go into the back of the drum. I have this theory because my wife's under wire from her bra has got stuck there and unlike socks, when the drum goes round, you can hear it like putting a piece of paper onto a fan. Whether or not you could find out if this is what happens, i do not know. But this is what i believe.

Collect all the odd ones up and put them in an old pillow case or such like and put to one side. The other matching socks will turn up later sure as eggs are eggs. Then you can get the kids and your husband to put them into matching pairs. I can guarantee though that within the week you'll end up with another load of odd socks.
In the scheme of things does it really matter? Socks are so cheap these days and we live in a throw away society, so just throw them all away and start all over again.

I guess they do end up in Illinois or stolen by sock gnomes. I started buying bulk packs of all white socks. My husband and I wear the same white socks. If they are all the same we will never miss the missing socks. I couldn't come up with any better solution than that.

The Sock Gnomes.

Logically, they fall under the dryer or washer, and who moves their washer and dryer around to notice these things. No one...that's right. So the dryer gets all the blame for eating them.
Illogically, as you close the lid to the washer, the rebellious little things are already scheming against you. They slowly form a chain one on top of another, until they can reach the lid. They throw the lid open....and they make a run for it.
Remember though, check your shoes, because i've heard that a runaway sock will oft return to its most familiar spot once it has sewn its wild seeds. And there you have it!!!!

If I could answer that question I be a very rich woman, the washing machine is like the Bermuda triangle for socks they go in but never come out.

They go to the great big sock grave-yard in the wash-basket.
If you wear tights instead of socks you have a sporting chance of them staying together at least!!
(Will be interesting for the boys!!)

They all go to the magic sock land and have sock parties and they also have little sock families and the kiddy socks go to sock school.

I use to find all the missing socks around my brothers bedroom, but now i have my own family and house normally inside pillow cases or around my sons room.

They evolve into metal coathangers - have you noticed how many of these there are?
Incidently its only the left sock that does this. The right one remains, that is why you end up with a bag full of odd socks.
