West Virginia is a state full of windy roads, forests, cozy mountains, and cabins by the creek. The people who call WV home are an independent, but close knit population, that love pepperoni rolls, buckeyes, and everything outdoors! This sock design combines twisted stitches to represent the windy back roads, and Fair Isle charts for the forests, mountains, and skies.
