The Lunaria Socks are a modern, colorful celebration of spring and are named after the Lunaria plant, which has four-petaled flowers that bloom in mid- to late spring using Bamboo Pop Sock. For style inspiration, the Lunaria Socks draw on the floral dresses and ruffled cotton socks I wore to childhood Easter celebrations, updated with tiny bobbles and microstripes. The Lunaria socks are designed to hit mid-ankle, perfect for when the weather starts warming up.
