What could I use sock wool for?
Local craft shop has some divine sock wool. It is actually almost too beautiful to use. I really just want to get some so I can look at it.....
But DH would be unreasonable and sniffy so I need a feasible project it would work for.....
I prefer crochet to knitting....

A hat. Thin shawlette thing?

I'd look on Ravelry (advanced pattern search) for ideas, personally.

Anything you'd normally use 4 ply for. I currently have a Damson shawl on the go in lively soft, squishy sock yarn. Do you use ravelry?

Also your dh is silly and clearly doesn't understand!

He is indeed very silly and completely devoid of understanding.
He also mocked me for never using my lovely tin of lakeland pencils.
The man has no soul.
