Azerbaijani Socks

 Azerbaijani Socks

AzerbaijaniSocks’ vision is to provide fairly paid, flexible employment for women in the rural parts of Azerbaijan, through a craft that has continued for generations, and to provide a cozy, handmade, unique, quality product to sell outside of Azerbaijan.

These socks are knit in homes, allowing women to work from home to earn income for their families. Each sock is made with unique colors and designs. These socks are a combination of high quality yarn, hours of labor, and modernized versions of traditional designs.
