January '16

The Supreme Sock Council wanted to express their best wishes for the year 2016 through the January sock. These wishes are symbolised by the blue-orange colour combination, inspiration for which provided this year's first colourful sunrise. It is not necessary to hold a long argument about the fact that blue is simply good and therefore irreplaceable in colourful wishes for the New Year. Who would not like clear sky, the blue colour of which is caused by the scattering of sunlight off the molecules of the atmospheric gases in a phenomenon known as Rayleigh scattering? As for the orange colour, it is considered a colour of the highest spiritual enlightenment by Buddhists, the achievement of which may serve as one of the more ambitious resolutions for the New Year.
