Vertigo Blinds Socks
Vertigo Blinds Socks were inspired by a photo I took years ago for a black-and-white film photography class. The assignment was to capture lines/stripes on film, and I took a photo with lines and shadows created by vertical blinds! I’m excited to translate that photo into a sock design.
