Take note that cream/offwhite is the color of natural wool. To get white you have to strip the lanolin and bleach the wool.

Here my knee high cotton/spandex support hose only come in black and white. I have to dye some of the white ones to increase the variety of colors to choose from. I choose the color I wear based on that looks good to me that day. White gets worn about as much as one of the colors or black.
