It's another pair of socks. This time it's my Rock n' Weave socks made of STR Jewel of the Nile. I've had these socks and worn them regularly for a long time. A very long time. But they finally blue out in the ball of the foot, as usual.
I guess I feel a need to mark the passing of each pair of socks with as much fanfare as I made when the were cast off.
I'll miss these socks. They wore like iron. I'll miss them. I guess it's a good thing that I have 3 skeins of the stuff secreted away in my stash.

You need to learn to darn socks. I can show you. It's fun. Learned at stitches.
If not learning to darn socks, I recommend making a patch of felted wool and place that in the same spot, and make a repair. So you can continue wearing and enjoying your socks and perhaps the felted portion will prolong its life.
Just an idea.
