If you have a Target store near you,  go to the ladies sock dept. Target 
carries a line of  Eco-friendly items,among  these items are socks made from 
bamboo fiber. They are incrediably soft and comfortable, i use them with my Ren 
faire outfit and have been pleased with the fabric and fit. It is softer then 
cotton, almost silky in feel.
