The Matisse should really wrap the ankle.

Had a pair if Kahlo socks, though even then I thought it sacrilege to walk on a lovely and talented woman's face. Made my own pair of The Scream socks and then the idea of mismatched sock mash-ups took up more of my time than I thought was wise...but it was fun!

I have Rothko socks. Am I cool too?

Those designs are woven on a jaquard type loom(circular for hosiery), not embroidered.

(Textile nerds FTW !)

"FArt Socks" for short.

Thank you! It's an important distinction -- corrected now!
