Losing your own socks to the washer or dryer is one thing.
However, those teeny tiny baby socks always seem to find their way into the black hole in your changing bag while out and about – or, even worse, accidentally stuck in the machine.
And it can be beyond frustrating.
Instagram user @momhacks4everyday shared a nifty trick to keep all of those tiny socks together – and you can recreate it for under €7.50.

And it is oh-so-simple to do.
The mum packed all of the baby socks into a washing bag – which Amazon sells a set of for just €7.10 – and threw them in the washer while they were all safely zipped up.
Not only does that mean that the socks won’t be sacrificed to the black hole in the washing machine, but it also doubles as a handy travel hack to keep from losing them in the luggage.
