Siddal
The flowing lines and repeated dots of Middle Eastern henna painting inspire these super feminine socks. Imitating the elaborate border prints of Indian saris, the Siddal Socks have bands of staggered lace patterning at the cuff that gradually ease into simple eyelet columns.
Worked top down with an integrated-gusset strong heel and grafted wedge toe.
