Bring Me to Life socks
We have all had a hard year, but our frontline workers have struggled with over run hospitals, being short staffed, and seeing so many people die from this terrible virus all alone. All the while, they showed up every day; some traveling across the country to help us stay alive!
I designed these socks and made a pair for my best friend. Something that showed her how much I appreciate all of her hard work!
I want these socks to be made for all your loved ones as well, so they get a tiny bit of my appreciation also.
The design consists of ECG rhythms and hearts. From top down, the first rhythm is ventricular fibrillation. In this heart rhythm, the heart is fighting to keep the body alive. The heart is barely pumping blood but it keeps trying. The next line is the flat line. The heart has stopped beating. It is followed by the heart design. The love that brings us back to a normal ECG rhythm, back to life.
Designers notes:
This is a toe up afterthought heel sock design with ribbed cuff.
