Straight Sock
I travel. I wear socks. I decided my straight needed a sock too.
Easy to make if you can sew an 'L' shape on a machine or get someone to do it for you. I used canvas.
Here are the steps if anyones interested.
1) cut out a 8 inch by 3 inch piece of canvas (or something similar - normal materiel will be too floppy)
2) On a short edge mark a line 3/4 inch in (on the side of the materiel that will become the inside), and fold along that line. The end of scissors can crease canvas easily.
3) Fold the piece in half with the fold back to the outside.
4) Sew down the edge, not too close to it, and turn the corner to do the bottom. I hand stitched the ends of the seam a couple of times to reinforce it a little. The top will come apart easily if the seam has a dodgy finish there.
5) Using a pencil or similar start at the bottom and poke it inside out.
6) show your razor his new sock. You should knock it over in half an hour :-)
