Let's Celebrate!

National Argyle Day

Every January 8th

When I think of argyle, I think of socks.  Did you know you can get argyle hats, sweaters, dresses, and even pants?  Who would have known?

Argyle is a diamond-shaped pattern that overlaps with diagonal lines. This holiday was developed to help people brighten up the winter by wearing bright, fun colors.

A Few Argyle Facts...
