The story inside, is as follows...
(oh, but before you go further, you may want to read this entry)

One cold afternoon, a mitten sat atop a fence post. "Sir!" Mitten called out. A man bustled by with a basket overflowing with laundry.

"Something is falling out of your..." and there on the ground lay a single sock.

Sock barely stood up before a bunch of school kids trampled on him. "Are you okay?" Mitten yelled down. "Oh, I am used to being walked on" Sock said with a cheerful voice. "Hey, what are you doing up there by yourself?"

"I used to be part of a pair," Mitten sadly said "now I am alone... and lost" "Wow," said Sock "I guess I am am too."

Mitten jumped off the fence post "Without my right mitten," she said "I am just a left." Sock was neither a left or a right but he knew what she meant. "We've got to find our other halves." he said.

As they set off through the park, Mitten covered her nose. "Whats wrong?" Sock asked. "I hate to break this to you Sock, but you don't smell so good."

All of a sudden, Mitten was caught, flipped, and flung through the air. She landed in the trash. "Hey! What are you doing in there?" Sock called

Sock pushed and pushed until the garbage can fell over. Mitten tumbled out, brushed herself off and grumbled. Sock wrinkled his nose "Now who doesn't smell so good?"

By now Mitten was cold, dirty and downright annoyed. They passed a grocery store and then a pet store. Sock stopped in the front of a laundromat.

It was closed but he had an idea. "Lets sneak in and get clean." Mitten shrugged and followed.

"Wow" they both whispered in awe. The shiny machines towered above them like skyscrapers. "To bad we don't have any money" said Mitten. "Don't worry" said Sock and he wiggled under a dryer.

Four quarters shot out. Sock emerged smiling and covered with lint. Mitten couldn't help but giggle.

"Mitten! The water is perfect come on in!" Sock called as the he bobbed in the bubbles.

Even Mitten had to admit it looked pretty fun. She tested the water then eased herself into the warm soapy suds. The two played, splashing each other until DING! The wash cycle was done.

"We better get dry" Mitten said and she put a quarter in a dryer. They spun around and around "Yipeeeee!" Sock shouted.

But when Sock tumbled out, he was not only very dizzy, he had shrunk small enough to fit a baby doll. "You should have told me you were wool" Mitten muttered. They made their way out to the sidewalk. Sock was so tiny that he fell behind.

Suddenly two dogs jumped out from the corner and grabbed him. They tugged and pulled and stretched sock to ten times his size.

"Put down my friend!" yelled Mitten, charging back to the resue. The dogs were so surprised, they dropped sock and took off.

"I don't feel so good" Sock moaned. "What would you do without me?" Mitten sighed and threw him over her shoulder.

Mitten couldn't see where she was going and walked over a metal grate. She and sock fell through the holes. Down they tumbled, thumb over heel, through the darkness.

They landed on the subway tracks. Mitten started to cry "Now I will never find my other half." "Don't worry Mitten. We will be alright." Sock said.

"Oh no we won't!" Mitten shouted, pointing at the giant light bearing down on them.

The train zoomed over them and one of Mittens threads got caught on the undercarriage.

She unraveled into one very, very long piece of yarn. "I don't feel so good" Mitten said. "Don't worry Mitten, I am right here" said Sock. He gently gathered her up into a ball and hopped up the subway stairs.

After a lot of searching, Sock finally found a knitting store and snuck in. He grabbed a set of knitting needles and a good how-to book. "I'll fix you right up Mitten"

"This will never work" Mitten groaned and Sock kept knitting through the night to put his friend back together.

The sun was rising by the time Mitten saw her reflection in the hubcap. Sock wasn't the best knitter in the world, but despite all of her new lumps and bumps, she still looked like Mitten.

"You did great Sock!" said Mitten. "What are friends for?" Sock smiled.

They walked up to the department store window and looked inside it. Every sock, mitten and glove had a match. They all looked so happy but thats when Mitten realized something...

"After everything that we have been through, I think that we make the perfect pair" the two friends hugged and from then on they were

SMITTEN.
