The Aran Socks takes its main inspiration from knots, braids, classical aran designs from the west coast of Ireland and my never ending longing to the world of Celts. The socks are knitted cuff down with simple and symmetrical cables running all the way down the front and back of the leg. To be more interesting there is a single stitch cable at the center of the sock.
