That is what I do with all my socks as well, and all my sighted friends who
learn of it from me now do it as well.

Cindy,

You may try having him use a safety pin and pinning the socks together 
before he throws them in the laundry pile.  This saves time on sorting 
socks.  You could also possibly just put one inside the other.  Supposedly 
this works as well, but I've haven't tried it.  Anyway, the safety pin thing

is something I learned as a blindness technique, but I've gotten my sighted 
friends to do it too.  They liked the idea and it sort of just caught on.

Just a thought,
Allison H.
