Heather: How long are my feet?
Elizabeth: If you don’t know I’m kinda worried.
Heather: I’m at the Clinton County Fairgrounds with a sock almost to toe time but no tape measure. And no memory.
Elizabeth: Colleen says as long as your forearm.
Heather: I think she may be wrong this time.
Elizabeth: Oh, you think not….
Elizabeth: 9.5” but Colleen’s method should work better.
Elizabeth: Inside of elbow to wrist is length of my foot…that’ll mess with your brain…do you have 7” dpns with you?
Heather: Nope. 6”.
Elizabeth: Colleen wondered if you had any butter…but then she remembered those are tbsp not inches. J
Elizabeth: Do you have anything that is 1” long? Aren’t any of those dumb booths giving away rulers or yardsticks?
Heather: I sent Joe around on a tape measure search…no luck. I’ll figure something out. Guess I do need that ruler tattoo. Surely one of these farmers will have a measuring tape buckled on their belt.

Elizabeth: Now she says maybe your glasses have markings that tell how long the ear pieces are.
Heather: Left ‘em at home.
Elizabeth:…or European clothing measured in cm and she’ll look up the conversion for you.
Heather: Between my elbow, wrist and thumb I think I’ve got it figured out.
Elizabeth: Colleen suggests a tattoo of a ruler…but for now she suggests trying them on since your feet are nearby.
Heather: They are nearby, but they are sweaty.

Dear Heather, I use the crease where my big toe joins the foot as my marker to start toe decreases. Haven't had a short sock yet. About 2 " from end of foot.
