Boy Scout Socks

The Boy Scouts have changed their colors -http://www.scoutstuff.org/bsasupply/info.aspx?page=bsauniforms - they no longer include the red at the top of their socks - but I like the red at the top...

...so I'll just knit me a proper pair of Boy Scout socks...

    i can't believe they'd change that!! have they changed the cub socks not to include the gold at the top? wow, an era is gone! i agree, the red at the top makes them special...otherwise, they're just army-surplus socks!!

    just remember, when he's up for eagle, he has to be in 100% official uniform!! love, k

    I think the centenniel ones are a darker green too - I don't know about the Cub ones - I'll have to check - 'though it doesn't affect us anymore - I'll remember about Eagle too.

    Love,
