annnd, not to double post - but now that I've learned denier is a fabric measurement, I wanted to know why I thought it was a monetary unit.

So I Googled it and discovered - We were BOTH right :D . Although the monetary denier is pretty old and no longer in use:

Origin of DENIER
Middle English denere, from Anglo-French dener, denier, from Latin denarius, coin worth ten asses, from denarius containing ten, from deni ten each, from decem ten — more at ten
First Known Use: 15th century


I obviously read waaaaay too much history :lol: :D

I'm so sorry I haven't posted my entry but we're having a rodent problem here at home and my mom wants to wait until we get rid of them to put the holiday stuff out. Hopefully I'll be able to get it up soon.

So, I've never made sock clothing before, but would very much like to try. For the record, sock clothing can be made from socks that are split apart, reshaped, seamed, and sewn and don't need to end up looking like human-sized socks (e.g. tube dress, tube sweater....) right? So long as the base fabric for all the outfits is "sock"? Hope that's not a silly question :oops:

Exactly - the sock is fabric to be used in any way you see fit :)

Yay! ^.^

I have an idea for outfits and a picture, but I need to figure out where to find the socks on a budget. Hm... :?
