Will it REALLY rain today??

Clear rain boots to show off your lovely hand knit socks or leg warmers!
 
 
The guy on the radio SAID it was going to rain today!  In case you have forgotten, rain is that wet drippy stuff that used to fall from the sky.  I caution you, because as I recall, when mixed with dirt or dust, rain has been known to cause MUD, which rumor has it, can really mess up your nice shoes!  So, this is where Knit Unique comes in....  We carry the clear rain boots designed to show off those lovey hand knit, colorful socks or leg warmers that you have been working so hard to make!  So go ahead - dance in the rain!

This guy is afraid to show his socks!
 
 
 
...and don't worry about hiding your socks!
