I can't wear closed-toe shoes, and wear open-toed year-round. So, in the winter socks are my thing.
Around the house I wear alpaca socks. They are extremely soft with a loose knit so don't bind. And they are very warm. This site has the best selection and prices:
AlpacaNation
And, since my shoes are open-toed, I wear fun socks when I go out. Here are two of my favorite places to buy them:
SockWizard
SockLady
