Abstract: A method for processing anklet socks knit with at least some thermoplastic stretchable yarns and having cuff portions in which the socks are subjected to a dye bath and excess fluid is extracted from the socks leaving them damp to the touch, and thereafter placing a first sock on a sock form while damp and enveloping the first sock with the second damp sock forming a pair of socks after which the paired socks may have their cuff portions folded over simultaneously before being subjected to elevated temperatures to dry the socks and remove wrinkles with the socks having substantial bulk and stretch when dried.
