Bought a pack of 7 black socks…
I think I’ve spotted your problem.

Static electricity, they're probably all clinging inside other bits of clothing.

Socks are nocturnal.
They spend the majority of their lives avoiding daylight in drawers, washing machines and shoes.
You need to hunt them down at night. -
Do you have a dog?

We've implemented a militant, check your socks at the door policy. Helped by underfloor heating / slippers but Ayla takes her socks off at the door, at the same time as shoes, as soon as she gets home from nursery.
They're put in a separate washing bag thing that gets zipped up and put in the machine.
We haven't lost any socks in 6 months now.

Now, the disappearing sock thing has always been around, so you can only ever find one of a pair, but since my 4 yr old started school in September its increased exponentially.
Bought a pack of 7 black socks, within 2 weeks, we were down to 3 pairs. Bought another 7 pack and now we a left now with 4 pairs out of 14. They definitely come home each day, but somehow get lost in laundry.
