Fun Socks

Alejandro and I were at a nearby shopping mall recently, and we saw a booth selling socks.  The brand name was "Skunk Socks" (with a German umlaut over the "o").  In spite of the bizarre name, the socks are made in Mexico.  There was a wide variety of fun designs, many of them with Mexican themes.  I bought some as gifts for friends back in Ohio.  And then, even though I have more than enough socks, I bought some for myself.


To the left is a pair of socks decorated with avocados.  In the middle are designs typical of the embroidery work done by the Otomí tribe.  And on the right are socks with skulls that I can wear for the Day of the Dead!
