Sock Cat Clip

I made this little cat because sorting socks is somehow still an unnecessarily annoying part of doing laundry. Instead of matching everything up afterwards, the clip keeps a pair together from the start and saves that repeated bit of friction.

Unlike round variants, this design holds the socks in two places instead of one, which makes it feel more secure and a lot more characterful. The holes also double as a simple sorting system: if several people share a household, everyone can get their own version with a different number of holes.

The clip needs a little flex in the neck to work properly, so I printed it at 0.2 mm layer height in polycarbonate. PETG should also work well. PLA might survive, but I would not trust it in hotter wash cycles or a dryer.
