ISIS STRIPED OVER THE KNEE - THE SOCK THAT STARTED IT ALL

Way back in the spring in 2007, when we were first starting to produce original sock designs we made the decision to have a bit of fun in naming each style. Drawing from inpriation from world cultures, we found inpiration in the colors and mood of each new style from the powerful imagry of goddesses. The first sock we made with the unique color palette available to us using regerated cotton was the Isis Striped Over the Knee.  Isis is an ancient Egyptian diety. She is the Goddess of the Wind and Fire. She is the Great One who heals. She is Goddess of Love and War. She is The Divine Mother.  Auwsat, Isis, Goddess of Magic, Wind and Fire
Worshipped as the ideal mother and wife, Isis is the ultimate woman, mysterious, intelligent, powerful and magnificently beautiful. Her wisdom is unsurpassed.
Isis is typically depicted with her arms outstretched and with wings of fiery oranges and reds. It is this image of Isis in all of her glory that was the seed for color combination on the Isis striped over the knee.

So to honor Isis this month. We will be offering a sale on this sock in both over the knee and crew lengths.
