HR Giger is a stunning visual artist who has inspired me for decades. His fine detail and subtle use of color are truly amazing. When I saw photos of Witch Candy’s Oil Slick colorway, I was instantly hit with the same sense of awe. The subtle richness of that colorway was like staring into a Giger.

These socks pair intricate lace and repetitive slipped stitches to mimic the lines and images in Giger’s art and to highlight the sparkle and gorgeous colors of the yarn.
